The only reason I boot up Windows at this point is to play shooters with EAC. What do you guys play if you're looking for a quick 20-minute firefight?

I play a lot of Apex Legends. It works very well on Linux.

Xonotic is always a good one.

Hunt Showdown runs on Linux with Proton and it has EAC

My go-tos are tf2 and tf2 - that is Team Fortress 2 and Titanfall 2. Both work great on Linux and have really dedicated communities. Titanfall 2 even has the Northstar client.

Shatterline and Caliber

Both free to play, on Steam, and work using Proton.

CS:GO, Halo MCC, Overwatch 2

though I don't know if OW2 counts as good anymore, certainly not a fan of the changes, but it still works on Linux

Why not just CS:GO? But I’m only saying this because I have no real recommendation tbh. For offline I can recommend Ravenfield. It’s really fun even though the native Linux version is kind of broken when using mods which is kinda the point of the game. Works fine using Proton though

Older game but red orchestra 2 is a classic ww2 shooter with a decent online community. Matches are around the 20 - 30 minute mark.
