You can check behind pillars from a distance or just run away from obstructions. Hide was the gift that kept on giving, in other words.
I honestly feel like 3.0 gave you a few blisters because as someone who played Nin. Yes there were times Detect was rendered useless but there were other abilities to lure them out. But also an experienced PvP'er knew how to bait/lure the ninja. If you knew the Ninja was also there it was as simple from keeping him going Stealth if you applied a DoT.

Moving to 4.0 eliminated a lot of strategy behind the modes.
