Description of deck by its author (quoted):
Finally, I will mention that even existing archetypes that are made without rares can be interesting. To be honest, it's relatively easy to build a competitive monoblack control deck without dipping heavily into hard-to-find cards. The most pressing problem is finding a "finisher" card once you have control of the game. Nantuko Shade and Riptide Replicator are rare, and so is Mirari, which is used in tournament decks to "Fork" cards like Corrupt for the win. Luckily, Prowling Pangolin is a fine solution for the budget-conscious player.

The Pangolin is one of those cards that's best used when both options are to your opponent's disadvantage. Most people can use a big 6/5 monster to thwack an opponent upside the head. If you're equally happy for that opponent to lose two creatures, then you're really on to something. If your friend Amy keeps staring at the Pangolin you just played, stammering and changing her mind about what to do, you've just played it at the correct time.

Here's my try at a monoblack deck, sans rares . . .
