the most obvious standard royal assassin combo is royal assassin + blinding mage...

No, because that would be multi-colored. Stabbing Pain would be obvious.

stabbing might make it mono colored but binding is more obvoius, black doesn't have alot of tap a creature cards so it would be harder for a some to realize that as opposed to play bu or bw

on a side note: Seriously, this combo hasn't been posted before, this is like the first combo i every played

"sleep and something that untaps the assassin."

That would be Black and Blue so Freed From The Real would be perfect for the assassin. ;)

@gericault5, Yes this is an old one. I remember using this in 1996 when Icy was new from Ice Age.
