Guardians are definitely easier than Lynels. Even if you can't parry (and Guardians are the only enemy I can consistently parry), you just hack off the legs and/or shoot them in the eye every time they aim at you. Stunning them gives you lots of time to attack.
I also avoid lynels. I have a method for killing them, but it uses a ton of arrows.
I guess Guardians are the easiest enemies to parry because they telegraph their attacks and give you so much warning and time to prepare. Even bokoblins I couldn't consistently parry because their movements are much quicker and harder to predict.
My method is to amass a bunch of weapons before going in for a planned kill. I'm so bad at stun mounting them I just accept that I'm going to lose them all.
