Black puddings aren't that much trouble.  They are gullible, you can drop
them down a trapdoor quite easily.  A wand of cancellation, or if a magician,
a spell of cancellation, never seems to miss the the Black Puddings.
A wand of drain-life can do a Black Pudding in normally in own shot, without
splitting it.

I use scrolls of genocide on the bloody Pit Fiends.  They are the most
obnoxious creatures around.  You can't hold them, or drain their life,
and most of the heavy magic items take repeated attempts to kill them.
Most of my deaths in super-rogue are attributable to Pit Fiends.
