For all your late game, mass removal, token annihilation needs: Whelming Wave. Doesn't touch your Krakens.
Unles your opponent is running too many enters the field effects, in which case you should totally side it out. But there is the possibility that you'll then have two turns with your impossible or difficult to block krakens while your opponent repopulates their board & deals with summoning sickness, even if hey also get some enters the field stuff. Make sure you have more than three life if they have a Siege Rhino out & you do this.
Also, you might consider Jalira, Master Polymorphist even though it is possible you'll hit an elf. Here's what I'm thinking- early game you get some of your tampers out, some your odds of hitting an archetype of kraken aren't bad later game. And even if you wind up saying an elf for a caryatid, there are worse things.
Very nice deck, I might even scrap my current for it Why you DON'T mess with hydras.. +1

I'd drop in a couple of Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx because u can untap with keyoras follower and get good ramp from it

I used to run Whelming Wave in here for quite some time. I like it alot, and it does fit the build, but I always just found it to be a little under-achieving. Don't get me wrong, wiping the board with some beefy krakens out is really fun, but if I have Stormtide Leviathan out, their board is most likely inneffective anyways.
The only card I can even think about coming out would be Become Immense, and in my testing I've just been way more impressed with it. I might do some more testing with Whelming Wave though, and see how I feel.
Jalira, Master Polymorphist is another one I've struggled with. I've tried her, and I like her, but basically it came down to rather having rampers. I've found my best chance to win is to hit a See the Unwritten ASAP, and the rampers are what make that happen.
@crater454
I don't know if Nykthos is right in here. I almost always get a See the Unwritten off before I would have enough devotion for nykthos to make a difference, and I don't have a ton of use for excess mana in the late game. That, and the mana screw is real in this deck, and adding a couple colorless sources (and potentially a dead drop) would lessen my chances of betting my key pieces out.
Thanks for the suggestions guys!

I love it! Even if you dont draw see the unwritten its quite easy to ramp into the krakens.

Thanks! I tried Crater's Claws for a while and it was alright. Burning Anger just has more potential in this deck. It's basically a repeatable burn spell, as it can target players or creatures, depending on the situation.
Appreciate the support!
