50% chance for ability to fire each round.

If ability fires, it will hit all adjacent cards. This means the middle card of aquagirl isn't on the outside, or both outside cards if aquagirl is in the middle. So if you assume placement is completely random, that's 1/6 chance to hit two cards, 1/3 chance to hit one.

It has it's appeal. Most repeating damage abilities (Dragon blade, Blade master, etc) do percentage of HP. This means it can never kill off a card--thus giving you a chance to damage enemy HP directly and possibly finish the fight, or at the very least letting your card(s) survive a round without taking damage. This one does absolute damage, like chain lightning or fireball.

Unlike most absolute damage abilities, this one can fire off multiple times. This means that as long as aquagirl is alive, she has a chance of picking off a weak card and winning the fight. The drawback is that she doesn't always fire off.

Her big disadvantage though is the lack of set bonus. If your set has free green or blue cards, you can put in chain lightning. If you have white, red, or black cards, you can use fireball. They only fire once, but you get the 75% bonus to base damage. Even Storm Rider is better than aquagirl. At least she can soulbind.
