What would be unique and more practical than water is sand. Reliability and maintainability would be bigger issues with sand.

The only real downside I can think of is that it would slow down the match rate if the Field needed to be raked after each match although a play it as you find it philosophy might work.

Just my two cents ... keep the change
You could always have a field that changes from the outcome of the previous match! That would really make strategy an on-the-field thing. Of course it would have to get raked maybe every 20 matches...
