Depictions of the kraken show a giant tentacled monster that is clearly some sort of cephalopod (octopus, squid, or cuttlefish). The closest creature to this known to science is the giant squid.

How did the Kraken beat the titans?

In mythology, the Kraken, a legendary sea monster, is often depicted as a giant octopus or squid capable of dragging ships and sailors to their doom. The Titans, powerful deities in Greek mythology, were ultimately defeated by the Olympian gods led by Zeus, not the Kraken. However, if we consider a more modern context, such as a fictional story or game, the Kraken might symbolize an overwhelming force that outmaneuvers or outsmarts the Titans through cunning strategies or sheer brute strength. Thus, the Kraken's victory would hinge on its ability to exploit the Titans' weaknesses.
