key cards a beginner should know (self.mtg)

I'm very new to mtg and have only been playing arena a little, but I've ordered some physical decks. I was wondering if there were some famous cards that a beginner should know? For any reason really, gameplay, lore, etc.

Thanks in advance!

PS. is there anything like the Reddit bot that fetches the cards here?

This link will show you all cards in the game sorted by their popularity in the EDH/Commander Format. It's doesn't break it down by other formats but I think it's a good start.
