Backstabbing in Dark Souls 3 is viable, if you know the mechanics and when to go for them. However, as people commonly don't understand the mechanics it seems like most people assume that an individual is hacking, lagging, or in some way is cheating.
Just like any other game when advanced techniques are used it's usually just skill and practice; fighting games people complain about certain combos, shooters people complain about no scope snipers, racing games people complain about racing lines. Although some people do cheat in some games, it is closed minded to just assume they are cheating.
If you want to become better don't just look at a questionable moment or a horrible loss and try to displace blame, not unless it is widely abnormal and suspicious. Look at the match and try to figure out how they did it, even if you have no intent to use the techniques yourself you'll often find that knowing how some techniques are done will often save you from falling to them repeatedly.
Special thanks to Hydra for showing me the real range that you can get backstabs with.
