Nightblade, crouch, stealth and invisibility

I was wondering as I read the skills. if I sneak up on a player/mob while crouching and stab them in the back. What does that count as ?

Specifically the shadow surprise attack ability, I have a feeling I have come across others.

Buddha like calm of a, farsi, dervish stealth assassin awaiting enlightenment, on top of a pole, dancing like a redguard.

    If your crosshair is still a solid line (or a half-closed eye) and you're behind the enemy, any melee or bow attack will count as a sneak attack. That grants more damage and a brief disorientation effect, in addition to whatever bonuses you get from stealthed attacks with your passives.

    If the crosshair is a fully open eye, you get nothing. You lose. Good day, sir.
