Instead of untapping normally, the permanent has stun counters removed from it when it would untap. The card generates value by creating 1/1 blue Tentacle creature tokens whenever you draw a card during an opponent's turn. Additionally, when one of your Tentacles dies, you can untap up to one target Kraken and place a stun counter on up to one target nonland permanent.
