honestly it’s a great ad for windows. i’ve been running debian exclusively for years, and even when i got my new laptop last year, i found dualbooting to be too difficult to set up, so i ended up getting an OEM restore stick from lenovo, then just nuking everything and installing ubuntu (back on debian now). if their guide is useful, i will instal windows and finally be able to play MTG Arena again (and a thousand other games)
Magic: The Gathering Arena? That has a platinum rating on proton DB so should work just fine on any modern Linux distro, like thousands of other games. No need for a dual boot unless you have one of a few problematic games.
really? i haven’t installed steam in years. for a short while i was dualbooting steamos and debian. now you’re saying “install steam, and let steam install mtga”?
Yes, I was shocked as well, since I always fucked around with wine and different launchers to get MTGA running and then they just released it on steam and it works like a charm (for mtga at least).

is there a tutorial for getting it running?
Dude, go to steam and click install! 😂

Most games on steam just work out of the box.
If it doesn’t, protondb may have workarounds, many of which are minor.
The biggest exception are games with invasive anticheat actively choosing not to allow you to use Linux.
