My dad got me into Magic: The Gathering Arena. I've played normal MTG for 11 years and he's played since the mid 90s. I initially dismissed this game as a microtransaction-laden F2P nightmare, but it's actually decent. I've been playing it for a while without spending any real-world money, and I have a decent deck.
Got this completely stupid win today...
Opponent had a blue-white healing deck against my black-white healing deck. They got me down to 5 health before my deck started working, and then this happened...
Card they tried to use before I won was "Warrant" which puts a blocking creature card on top of its owner's library.
Check out Jeskai Cycling meta decks and build it in MTGA. Its super fun to play, cycling cards all the time and proccing effects left and right. I even built a variation of it in IRL paper MTG Pretty cheap!
Mechwarrior V.. I really like some aspects of the game and not a fan of other features.. overall, its a good game imo though

If I can give you one bit of advice, make sure you don't burn out from the game before finishing the storyline / getting the highest MW rank because that also unlocks new mechs at the shops and some are really fun to play. Game will just keep on giving random missions at some point, with some sort of reputation progression path but its a bit like Battletech to me, at some point it gets old.
Its just... make sure you get your behind inside an Annihilator, because even if its slow as molasses... dayum son.
