Adjust reflex guard so you hold it to be active. | Forums

As the title says. I've mentioned this in the past and it needs to be a thing since reflex guard is obsolete. The other fix for reflex guard could be resetting the timer on the guard on block. Since attacks are becoming much faster this would help our poor assassin's out.

How about making it so that while u hold it it drains a bit stamina?

Nah I wouldn't like that. A disadvantage for blocking is not a good idea.

Reflex guard is a thing of the past in my opinion, I don’t have anything against that every hero has the normal guard system.

Would be an absolute annoyance for M&K users. Really the only issue with blocking on reflex is having to reset your block immediately if hit by multiple attacks that are just barely spaced apart. You can only block multiple attacks at once if they manage to hit at the same time. If they simply loosened that window a tad then multi-hit attacks and such would be easier to defend against without removing guard refresh from the game.

True about the m/kb users. You could make it so if you let go of the guard you would still have it for 1100ms. It would still be the same for them as it is now.

The other suggestion I mentioned is just having the guard reset on block.
