Of course I did.
One/three advantages and disadvantages:
- 1. Advantage: No hand seals required.
- 2. Advantage: No water source required.
- 3. Advantage: Can be used to raise yourself up into the ground and thus kind of has a defensive feature.
How you would use it in battle: I can't find much disadvantages in this technique, except that the water isn't really lethal but that's okay, because this isn't a technique that is for hurting the opponent. So, I would use this technique to raise my opponent into the air and make him/he more exposable to one of my technique and/or interrupt him/her in maing her/his own technique. I would also use it to raise myself into the air and use it as a help to perform another technique more succesfully and/or defend myself against small projectiles, even some weaker Wind and Fire techniques.
How you would counter it: This technqiue doesn't actually go after hurting you but only to raise you up in the air. If my opponent would raise me into the air like that, I would most probably deal with it and try to make the best out of the situation and use my place in the air for performing an another technique or just made a backflip to get off of it. Like for example, I would use this for performing a Knejutsu move
Falling Water if my opponent would be closer to me.

One/three advantages and disadvantages:
- 1. Disadvantage: Requires a hand seal and the range is short.
- 2. Advantage: Even though it requires a hand seal, releasing of the ball is still pretty rapid and fast and could be used well in a close combat battle.
- 3. Advantage: Doesn't require a water source.
How you would use it in battle: Now, even though this is a short range technique and even requires a hand seal, it could be still used pretty productively. For example, if my opponent and me are fighting in close range and are tossing some taijutsu attacks at each other, I could unnoticeably make a hand seals while trying to kick him with my foot while spinning around my axis. And then when it will look like I want to punch him/her, I unexpectedly release that bullet towards him/her pushing him/her away, leaving me an opening.
How you would counter it: I think that this is easily defeatable by a simple
Earth Release Release Technique because of the obvious erth - water relation and because this technique doesn't require any hand seals and thus, you can be ast enough to defend. I would create like a small earth bullet or that would go after that water bullet.
