I'm assuming the list of throw-exploiting-assassins is basically Tiiga, Jeede, Nazaretes, Cainasir and Qinsa, all of whom died in 2016, and all of whom except Jeede had Master of Nage Waza.
I sorted by PKW and then went from the top down and picked out characters that died in 2016. Many of these have detect hidden, and some of them would have been allies of some (but not all) of the above assassins. Here's what I've got:
Reegun, human shaman, 163-53 overall, 1-3 vs. assassin Others: 0-2 vs. transmuter, 7-7 vs. druid, 2-2 vs. AP
Golthazar, duergar warrior, 158-62 overall, 9-2 vs. assassin Others: 0-6 vs. transmuter, 8-9 vs. paladin
Kaer, fire warrior, 150-77 overall, 8-7 vs. assassin Others: 2-3 vs. rangers, 7-14 vs. shaman, 0-1 vs. necromancer
Darvoderis, half-drow shaman, 131-114 overall, 5-16 vs. assassin Others: 0-2 vs. transmuter, 2-4 vs. thief, 6-8 vs. paladin
Grimghal, duegar warrior, 128-28 overall, 1-1 vs. assassin Others: 4-4 vs. paladin, 5-4 vs. necromancer
Mhirnal, drow anti-paladin, 118-6 overall, 8-1 vs. assassin Others: n/a
Zalgordrax, mummy necromancer, 113-16 overall, 4-4 vs. assassin Others: n/a
Muuksube, duergar shaman, 112-11 overall, 4-1 vs. assassin Others: n/a
Tsalantha, drow anti-paladin, 174-9 overall, 15-0 vs. assassin Others: n/a
Out of these nine, five did worse against assassin than their overall record would predict. Though, in some cases we're talking about very small numbers, e.g. Reegun going 2-2. That's worse than his 163-53 record would predict, but when you only die twice to a class over a long life it's hard to argue you were dominated by that class.
Only two, Kaer and Darvoderis, had more than a handful of deaths to assassins. Darvoderis had 114 PK deaths (!!!) so his assassin death count may not mean much. He seemed to die to all kinds of classes.
