There's also the difference between close combat and ranged combat. In close combat dodging is preferred over blocking your opponents attacks (though this varies per weapon, some weapons are made to take advantage of blocking) Overall though, for most weaponry dodging is preferred, as blocking merely introduces a stalemate which can go either way, while dodging creates openings for you to take advantage off.

Ranged combat goes too fast. Dodge one bullet and the enemy already has a next one ready to fire. It doesn't create openings the same way close combat does.
