Magic's always been tough for beginners. The starter sets, cheaper boxes that give you two premade decks and a little rulebook, are the standard way in for a lot of players. Arena has a tutorial that was recently redesigned to be a smoother on-ramp. But the problem isn't learning how to play land and tap it to cast spells—it's where you go from there.
The classic mono-green strategy is going tall. You bring out as many forests as you can, pumping up the mana until you can play one of your big guns like. Ghalta, Primal Hunger, is a perfect example—a 12/12 who, like a lot of green-deck big guns, has trample. He also costs less if you control other creatures, so those Llanowar Elves you summoned while you were waiting to play Ghalta get to feel like they're still contributing.
