What’s best practice to safely play pirated games on Linux? Looking to mitigate potentially malicious executables from wrecking havoc on my system.

I trust the pirates more than the corporations.
Remember the Sony BMG copy protection rootkit scandal?
I think corporations are doing quite well if your example is from 19 years ago.
In the same era, we had things like LimeWire where files were frequently viruses, CP, or similar masquerading as innocent files like the latest song from your favorite artist.
I’ve never tried closed trackers, so I can’t speak on that side of pirate life but I think it’s naive to trust pirates on public trackers.
Personally I got the Sony root kit but I never got any virus or illegal material from p2p downloads.
Lucky you. I definitely have.
