It does not activate from the front anymore. I have been running blade since the patch and I have only gotten one shots in the back. Unless you are playing mayhem, you shouldn't be getting backstabbed.

If you say so, I'm getting backstabbed slightly off to my side's then. But my point of hunters having a ohk melee still stands.

I very rarely get a back stab kill but even then it is still on a WAY slower recharge rate than shoulder charge. On top of that hunters have less speed then a titan. You will never see a blade dancer rush through the middle of the map and melee charge you. At least I have yet to see that lol. That is the difference. Shoulder charge is offensive. Blink strike can be offensive but it is not going to be used in a rush. It will be used in a 1v1 or a melee or shotgun battle.
