It's cool, YOLF. The drill wasn't actually that tough. It was more of a flashy thing to bring out your A-Game. Water in the MGQ universe is all about serenity and flow. Direct attacks like that aren't really it's forte. Where it shines is in finding weak points, redirecting attacks rather than outright blocking them, and in general being a 'soft' weapon that can't be easily opposed by sheer force.
Anyway, expect my post in a few.
