Official rulings

3 rulings · in English, source Scryfall

You must be able to target a creature to cast Assassin’s Strike.

2012-10-01 · Wizards of the Coast

If the creature is an illegal target when Assassin’s Strike tries to resolve, it won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. Its controller won’t discard a card.

2012-10-01 · Wizards of the Coast

If Assassin’s Strike resolves but the creature isn’t destroyed (perhaps because it regenerated or has indestructible), its controller will discard a card.
