Lord Krishna knew various secrets of every person encountered in Mahabharath. He knew the boons and curses possessed by various individuals. He knew the art of cracking every formation. He had the knowledge of all the astras, including how to neutralise a given divine weapon. He knew the strengths and weaknesses of every person. He exploited the weaknesses to cause their downfall from time to time.
