While disco priests used to be huge pain in the backside back in Wraths I don't find them all too hard anymore.
Sap
followed by
Garrote
as an opener combo. Pop
Vendetta
and SnD. Once the silence from garrote wears out, pop
Cloak of Shadows
to resist the fear that most priests will be spamming while standing in silence. Vanish - Cheap Shot - Cold Blooded Envenom. At this time they usually pop their shield and try to penance themselves. It's a good time for a kick, kicked penance = priceless.

This is a tough one. Assassin isn't what it used to be. There was a hybrid spec that was absolutely awesome in PvP. It was the go to spec for everyone in arena etc. This was when Sub wasn't doing well. Now, with the buff to sub, and the inadvertent nerf to sin (Can no longer go hybrid), sin just doesn't have the control and ability that sub has these days. Sub is much more complicated to play, but it provides the most control. Sin, OTOH, works great against plate. Envenom bypasses armor, and with your opening bleed and envenoms, it can go a great deal of damage against plate.
That said, Benk did a pretty good job of giving some tips. Pretty much similar with what I would do, but just remember that suib and sin have their places and it can be tough playing sin against a disc priest.

Though, it can also depend on play style...some people just play differently against certain classes. Though yes, assassination can pretty much eat a plate wearer, though sub can fight them pretty well too. Bleeds ignore armor after all, and sub can use 3. Also sub stole Find Weakness from assassination. Also once saw an arms war (130k) go against a combat rogue (124k) and the rogue come out on top with at least 40% health remaining.....i was a lil too shocked to see a combat rogue in pvp to ask him how he beat the war...
