i mean as long as u play a weapon with good shot speed and a bit of range fighting kraken is fun strafe to the side whenever they surge then kill them in end lag
I think it would be cool if they gave Kraken an HP stat, but only other Krakens could deplete it(or make it so getting hit by a Kraken Attack depletes the timer or something). Granted, usually the Kraken players would probably still ignore each other in favor of whatever objective they're chasing, but it would add yet another layer to the play and a neat mix-up. And of course, would make Kraken Kaiju fights have an actual metric. Only problem is it might also make the Kraken a bit centralizing as the only thing that can directly fight other Krakens. Don't want to replace double Crab with Double Kraken.
@@BasedMamaJames617that's not at all what happens when batman and the joker meet, and that's not at all comparable to this. this is when two immovable objects meet
no if i remember correctly double splash is still the optimal way to play splash, stacking crabs and providing suppression fire from multiple angles is just the optimal way to use it. whats more likely is that we might see double nzap again i think
What seems to have happened for the +5 penalty during the clam blitz game is that Havoc scored 2 clams, but the game lagged and didn't count them. Then when the other team scored, it seems to have counted the 2 clams (so 6 points) towards the penalty score and not the actual score (since 11-6 equals 5). How and why this happened, my only answer is Splatoon 3.
1:57 Don't worry Chara, you're not the only one. One time I killed someone in a corner in Maui Mahi and a Kraken tried to kill me but he fell into the water.
its funny that, the whole team is trying to get some strategy to win the game, and Chara is casually just wiping out the whole enemy team with Kraken lmao
Kraken is great with chokepoints but when the team is pretty bad and you're against players who knows what's up, you're basically playing tag if your teammates doesn't assist you with the pressure. I think Kraken is definitely a situational special especially during crucial scenarios.
Kraken is so fun right now even though we only have 2 weapons with it, imagine if we got it on something like a splatana, that would make the game so fun
@@sean9063 it needs to be able to die just like Crab Tank and Booyah bomb. if it has unlimited super armor (which it feels like it does) then it feels almost broken
Unlike Missiles, which locks on to multiple people, OHKOs in multiple places and doesn't care about walls (not roofs), Kraken loses all momentum when faced with a wall or change in elevation especially and only affects one definite area, so "move" is literally counterplay advice It also good positioning and anticipation (having a brain)
@@sean9063 It's not broken for a few reasons: A) It has starting and end lag. B) It can be knocked away by being shot at. C) It loses all momentum when faced with a wall or elevation change. Not to mention that it takes a second once it moves in one direction, so you just have to move out of the way. D) You are not at all stealthy with it - You make yourself aware to the enemy team, and they can instantly target you as soon as it wears off.
@@NicoTheCinderace the B part is just straight up not true, Kraken just charges at you and then you die so basically the only way to deal with it is to run back it should take more knockback and the duration on tower should be cut half just like big bubbler , and then its properly balanced its not op or anything but changes are needed
3:30 I think the reason there was a penalty of 5, is because someone threw 2 clams in right before the basket closed. The game was lagging though, so it didn't count the clams until much later, thus the penalty of 11 was reduced to 5.
New inkjet buff is underrated. Earlier I hit the most epic triple kill clip where the last one I shot a midair inkjet from halfway across the map in my inkjet only because the buff allowed me to get enough height
Gotta take notes. I prefer to use the Roller with Kraken because of the better aim although having to resort to close range combat, but I see it is still effective with the .96 Gal
Just watching this makes me imagine being on a team with Chara and I would be the biggest let down ever. Literally everything i heard in this video was everything i wish i would be or my friends sound like, but literally we all have the worse cooperation ever XD
can we have a video for this stupid idea of my brain, where weapons can have a second special weapon that you can freely switch between before activating it
Having a penalty of 5 is possible if you have a penalty of 15 and you score a power clam that give a penalty of 10 but scores 20, I think in this scenario you would have a penalty of 5
it would change nothing in the current meta because kraken isn't super strong or relevant but if kraken ever got buffed to be meta, that would just lead to an oversaturation of kraken as the only counterplay to a kraken would be another kraken so you'd be running 2 or 3 krakens to counter opposing krakens
Kraken is stupid but it's beautifully stupid. I honestly don't care if I'm killed by a kraken, it's so much better than smth like crab and missiles pls 😭 I just hate the clams cheese, idk why you still get guaranteed clam throws out of a super jump
I honestly wish it could be killed just like Crab Tank. I dont understand why it has infinite super armor. make it killable just make it hard to kill like Booyah Bomb armor.
@jakcesleepingrn how would it be boring? It's not easy to kill booyah bomb armor. Even with object shredder it's unlikely unless a teammate helps you. Now putting that armor on a moving target makes it even harder but atleast you have to chance
@@animal1nstinct394 1. You will be just sitting there like with baller in splatoon 2 2. It would see no practical use in crab meta if it would be hp special because crab just kills every other hp special out there 3. It's hitbox is really big so you won't be missing any shots to shred it. 4. Some main weapons and sub weapons would be way too hard countering it. For example, splatlings, .52 gal, fizzy bomb, splatanas, tri-stringer e.t.c.
@jakcesleepingrn give it more armor, problem solved. No special should have infinite super armor. It just feels broken, I don't know anyone can justify it. And the moment it transforms back to squid form I swear it still has invulnerability frames during that time where they'll still have time to kill you before you can kill them.
im honestly suprised the meta.. only slightly changed wich is not a joke they did to little to crab again (same story as the chill season patch it did nothing to reduse its supressing power aka the main reason why its meta)
1:57 LOL! (You just fell to void) HI prochara. I LOVE the kraken. When it's nerfed but, some people in thier opinion don't really like the kraken being nerfed (for those who tried/used kraken in battle in splatoon 1) they'll have to re-learn how to use the speical, because well they nerfed it obviously. So that it wouldn't be OP
I kinda hate how much double standards affects talk about Splatoon. Crab Tank is awful to fight against so everyone hates it, but Kraken is also awful to fight against, and literaly breaks objectives even worse. Splash is a hated weapon for being too consistent, but nobody bats an eye when Slosher becomes a guaranteed 2-shot.
Because slosher is meant to be a two shot?? It's just that the falloff damage made it unreliable and much weaker so for people who main it this is great
Kraken is the definition of "its only fun when I do it"
Yes, and that's what makes specials fun, IMO. If anyone can invalidate or run from an attacking special, what's the point?
These two ppl are totally either Krak-on roller mains or Gal deco mains
i mean as long as u play a weapon with good shot speed and a bit of range fighting kraken is fun
strafe to the side whenever they surge then kill them in end lag
we need a special that's fun to both chase people with and run away from.
Imo fighting kraken is a free "walk away and taken advantage of the 4v3" button
I love how when two people use kraken, instead of an intense dual between two powerful foes, they just ignore each other anticlimactically.

I always wait to pop my kraken if I can so I can catch them in the endlag
Like the Batman and Joker, when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object, they tend to ignore each other and go after the smaller fry.
@@bobbafett5175 maybe double crab and kraken if what you said happened
@@BasedMamaJames617that's not at all what happens when batman and the joker meet, and that's not at all comparable to this. this is when two immovable objects meet
the one probem i had with kraken was the objective cheese, and now that theyve patched it its a much better special to fight, absolutely a w special
Clam Cheese is still a thing tho…….
NOT ANYMORE
I love how all the patch to crab did to last resort was making their single splash comps justifyable.
Which allows for more diversity which means there is no one weapon that's gonna murder everyone which is a good thing
no if i remember correctly double splash is still the optimal way to play splash, stacking crabs and providing suppression fire from multiple angles is just the optimal way to use it. whats more likely is that we might see double nzap again i think
@@torielandcheese1076 yes but im just saying its easier to counter now
@@anaoe2guy no yea i agree with you, im just saying that the original posters claim of "single splash being justifiable" might not hold water
Why double Nzap? I think double tacticooler is more likely to be nzap/trislosher nouveau

Is this sarcasm. Kraken has made the game from great to even better

Summary: "I have Kraken soon, I have Kraken soon"
"Got one" "Got two" "Got three" "Niiiiice"
I like the part when proChara says "It's Krakin' time" and kraked all over the map.
This is doing numbers

it's far more effective on the 96, krak on is okay but 96 is a legitimately good option with kraken

The only problem with the special is how few weapons have it, like I genuinely can't imagine a weapon I wouldn't want Kraken on
that game where you had a penalty of five was ridiculous, I guess it was lag but it’s weirder that the penalty changed from 11 to 5 on enemy score.
Kraken shenanigans are the best
To be honest, I would KILL for a hero mode level with an infinite Kraken
Probably in Side Order

Nope, because you technically scored, when time runs out half of what you scored becomes additional penalty, even if the score was used on the penalty
imagine if stamper got kraken
