The Kraken is a Special Weapon in Splatoon. The Inkling Squid amiibo provides single player challenges that involve using the Kraken on a timer throughout different levels.
Description
For a short period of time, player will change into an invincible Inkling in a monster-like Squid form. While no damage is received, additional knockback will occur when hit. It can move freely on enemy ink while leaving its own trail. Jumping into an enemy will destroy them instantly.
Usage
The Kraken must be charged by before use, accomplished by spreading ink. Once charged, the player may click the right analog stick, activating it. When activated, a message with the player's image and the special used (in this case, the Kraken) is displayed for teammates to see.
Tips
- Use it when you're near low health as it makes you invulnerble from Inklings and allows you to fight back.
- A proper timing of Kraken can dodge abilities that can splat you, such as the Seeker, which can be deadly if unaware.
- Never use it for catching players as it swims slower than a normal squid.
- Swim speed up can slightly increase the speed of a Kraken, allowing you to chase.
Countering
- Speedy targets such as the Inkbrush can be fast enough to escape the Kraken.
- Since Krakens are considered "squid forms", they can still go through grates. You could try to lure the Kraken user on a grate flooring to make them fall and break their pursuit.
- Krakens are immune to everything except for hazards. Try baiting the kraken into falling into water or off the map by jumping over him when he is about to get you.
- In Arowana Mall, there is a grate spot positioned above the water. Try luring them into falling through the grate and into the water, where they'll splat themselves in the process.
- Shooting the Kraken can knock it away, thus making them harder for them to reach.
