I currently have a load of pirated games and I'm considering moving my systems to Linux cuz Windows is ass. Would this make it difficult to run pirated games?

Are these launchers that provide a wrapper similar to Steam and Proton? Do you recommend one over the other, or is it dependent on game?

Yes both launchers can use proton-ge as a wrapper similar to what steam dose.

As for recommendation, pick what you like. Both programs fill the same function and are both FOSS. Heroic has a nicer interface, Lutris has an option to show logs while you are running a game that can help with debugging if the game doesn't work for some reason.
