Use
Crab Tank can be used to mow down enemies attempting to make a push, or quickly disperse them if the Crab Tank's team wants to push.
- The ZR attack is a rapid fire that can easily splat opponents in open areas.
- Some enemies will try to hide behind walls, but the Crab Tank can use its R attack to fire globs of ink, which act and combo similarly to the Explosher.
- The Crab Tank can shift into a ball to protect itself from attacks and move more easily, and also climb walls.
- Putting a Crab Tank on top of a tower can serve as a makeshift shield, hindering enemy pushes, with the added bonus of having a constant stream of shots. However, you must take note of which direction the enemies are trying to seize the tower from relative to your position, moving the Crab Tank along the sides accordingly.
- Since the Crab Tank has a separate health pool and is unhindered by enemy ink, it's a decent choice for Clam Blitz, as it can carry clams or Power Clams by rolling into the enemy base.
Countermeasures
- Slosher class weapons, such as the Slosher, Tri-Slosher, and Sloshing Machine, can easily splat a Crab Tank user head-on by arcing their shots over the opponent. When in lethal range, a Dynamo Roller can also reach the cockpit while attacking from the front.
- Most specials in the game are great at stopping the Crab Tank.
- Booyah Bomb, Ink Storm, and Tenta Missiles force the opponent to enter the ball mode and reposition.
- Killer Wail 5.1 and Wave Breaker and pierce through the armor, distracting Crab Tank users by making them dodge the specials instead of attacking.
- The Kraken Royale can blitz through the Crab Tank's heavy fire with a charge attack and quickly shred it, as its Squid Roll spinning attack can reach the cockpit in the back.
- Special Weapons like the Trizooka, Inkjet, and Ultra Stamp can quickly break the Crab Tank.
- Weapons like the Splatana Stamper or the Nautilus 47 can quickly break the Crab Tank.
- A Torpedo in homing phase can pose a problem for the Crab Tank: since it can't turn quickly, it may have problems shooting it down before it can detonate and release its droplets.
- Flanking can be effective due to the crab tank's low turn speed
- Dualies can be effective because of their dodge rolls and and ability to flank
