The good news is that all of the Commander 2019 decks look playable out of the box, and while Naya Populate might be the best of the bunch, each deck has some claim to fame by coming in first in at least some categories
Pete Caught Up in the Music is best played early so you can get his Strength buff later
This deck has built-in tools that allow your cheap characters to trade up into more expensive characters, which will in turn allow you to deal with the opponent cheaply and still have ink left to redevelop your board
Flashfreeze Burn answers are typically white, which makes other players feel like they often have to choose between splashing, relying on Dragons Claw, or just trying to race/ignore the Burn player
19 Voracious Vermin Voracious Vermin is a bit expensive at three mana for just a 2/1, but it also creates an additional 1/1 black rat creature token
Even if we were to utilize the 4 cost Beast - Forbidden Recluse, at most we're saving 2 ink to Shift into Tragic Hero
