I’m specifically interested in this one-on-one style, apart from roguelike/RPG deckbuilding games.
Those are fun too, but a different style.

Here is an actively maintained, FOSS implementation of M:TG, Forge: https://github.com/Card-Forge/forge
It freely allows you to construct decks with any card (you can even make your own). Can do multiplayer (client/server), multiple different modes like planechase, archenemy, commander, etc. You can download other people’s decks from the internet and play against the AI. The AI is alright for the majority of decks. There is even an '97 styled adventure mode that is pretty true to the original.
Thanks for the heads-up! I’ll have to give it a try.
I use XMage for this on Windows.
