I believe my suggestion would eliminate a free 10% DR for anyone that didn't do the same thing twice in a row. Other than that, the downside of guarding is that you already don't do shit and use up the momentum you could have used to dish out damage (Which would work in your favor under even circumstances) or anything else. It would make guarding to be viable only for those that could actualy tank, since your common dodger is squishy so you're very likely better off trying to dodge rather than guard. To add, it's sort of a waste of momentum if a dodger guards and they end up evading, so they only hurt themselves if they guard and manage to evade.

All in all, reduction of evasion looks nice on paper, looks all nice and realistic but systemwise is silly.
