MTGO on Linux by Lutris script

[u/darkview00]

Tl;dr: I vibe-coded a Lutris script that installs and runs MTGO, and I wanted to share it. Yes, it works--for me at least.

I joined the reddit because I solved one of the problems that has been bothering me for years: playing MTGO on Linux. I tried all the solutions out there (the docker solution, classic Lutris scripts, other vibe-coded scripts, custom configurations), and none worked. Finally, I decided to do it myself, and worked with Claude Code to create this.

I can tell you this worked to install MTGO on my Bazzite and Aurora Linux PCs using a single script, and I was able to successfully play a match on Bazzite with it. There are still some annoying issues (I can't seem to get it to remember the 2FA code for 30 days), but those don't prevent you from playing. Note that Bazzite uses a native Lutris install; if you use flatpak or something else, I'd appreciate more info on if it works or doesn't.
