Same reuse effect if it scores a kill. Some counterplay against it? Yes, but will it be a secured kill if they can't recupe more than twice? Also yes
Not sure that would work, multiple NINs working together could potentially go on a small killing spree by marking and coordinating their LBs, it would make it really cheap. Reacting to something with the dot tick speed of pyretic would be difficult and would make the 60% defense of tanks and melees in FL rather useless. If anything it might be better for NIN LB to not work through guard (nor any LB for that matter). It's not a perfect LB but it's also not the most annoying.
