A tutorial is really needed

[Novantanove]

As a new player, I was expecting a tutorial to guide into building a deck and playing the first game, with an explanation of basic game mechanics.
Instead, I have 3470 cards to choose from, and not a clue on what they do and how to build a deck.
I have no idea where to start, and the game guide is useless, as it seems to assume one already knows how to play the game.

This is something we are actively working on

New player here. This definitely feels like a second stop from Arena or Physical. I really like it but I can't imagine trying to learn the game like this. Not trying to be negative, I honestly feel that is ok, but a good tutorial would be cool.
Actually I'm pretty sure I would have failed if not for the MTGGOLDFISH tutorial video.
Maybe just making some videos like that updated and linking them would be a good start, if you haven't already.
