Welcome to the Deckbuilders' Challenge originally created by sdfkjgh! To participate in this Contest you'll have to design a deck along the contest guidelines and throw it into the arena with other competitors' entries! At the end of every two weeks, a winner will be determined by forum poll, and the winner decides the challenge for the next fortnight's Contest! Here we go, competitors: our eighty-first challenge! The winner of the “Lord of the Cards“ poll was melono with... |
(Pauper Commander)
{Comments} Make a ton of tokens, get bigger creatures, make profit. |
And the challenge issued by our winner was... Create a deck with at least 2 different cards that had an upshifted rarity (common to rare for example) and 2 different cards that had a downshifted rarity (uncommon to common for example).Promo's notwithstanding! Those are just "rare" without actually being rare as a rarity. Please provide a decklist using deckstats, tappedout or similar. Feel free to add some comments as they will be included in the final poll. Please provide a deck name as well as choose a card to represent your deck in the poll.And now, time to begin the challenge! Best of luck, competitors!

A quick way to search for cards that work for this for a given rarity would be to search the following in scryfall. Replace "rare" with your desired rarity.
in:rare -rarity:rare -is:promo is:reprint
Here's a version that excludes Secret Lairs if you want to count those as promotional.
in:rare -rarity:rare -is:promo -e:SLD is:reprint

Isareth the Uncommoner A quite standard Pauper Commander reanimator deck, which gives you value from the graveyard, so mill, kill, sacrifice, and most importantly, attack and outvalue. The maybeboard has the downshifts, sideboard has the upshifts.

Sneaking in an entry at the last minute! 
I used the links vizionarius provided, except manually exluded a few cards that came up purely due to Spellbook shifts or similar.
(Commander)
This is a deck themed around heay hitting flyers - but most importantly every single card (basic lands aside) within this deck has been rarity-shifted at some point.
This thread is now closed, the poll can be found here. And here's the next challenge!
