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?

Xonotic is always a good one.

Shatterline and Caliber

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

Hunt Showdown runs on Linux with Proton and it has EAC

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

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

I didn't know it was still active. I have it in my Steam library. Thanks!

Insurgency Sandstorm is pretty good and CS:GO is always a classic go-to.

Some EAC games support linux like halo. I played MCC and the performance was fine, but I found the game to be unstable when interacting with the menu/UI.

Krunker is nice for a quick match. You can play it directly from your browser or download it from steam

I play apex legends and sometimes overwatch. Csgo is also an option but i haven't played it yet
