It's a very viable alternative to parrying, and if you do it right you can avoid all damage in fights. For example, I use it often when fighting multiple opponents to duck under their swings and often coming up behind them so I can hit them, which will deal a lot more damage. It's practically a neccessity when fighting in dark mode like I am. :)
