Ramses, leader of a dark Assassin's Guild, is plotting to take over the world. He doesn't hesitate to kill anybody standing in his way and even persuaded a Planeswalker to aid his cause. He specializes in enchanting his opponent before killing him and his faithful Guild follows every order he gives.
What do you think about adding Sorin Markov to the list? Granted his second ability is big cheese, it could be an "I assassinated your life total" ability.

Since all your assassins require tapping to do their job, maybe something like Thousand Year Elixir and Puppet Strings would be helpful.
I think the lack of a big beater (or two) is problematic as well. You could do Havoc Demon or Reiver Demon, as they "assassinate" the board? Sort of on theme, right?

This seems like a pretty fun deck to play and a good use of an interesting general. Have you actually played it? How does it fare?
Unfortunately I haven't made this deck IRL. I made over 100 decks for the EDH database with all the unused Generals, and this is one of them. I do try to make the deck as good as possible within the sometimes strange restrictions I put on myself

If you ever manage the War barge + Merfolk Assassin combo in a game, you will be my hero forever.
I find it too far fetched to call his ability an assassination, but thanks for the input. It's a good idea, but it feels not right for this deck
And I once had a deck with that combo, but it never came out But I'll try to build it in a deck once more, so you have your hero to look up to
