In celebration of the memetic Yargle, Glutton of Urborg, a free-to-play phantom preconstructed event was held on Magic: The Gathering Arena on September 3, 2020[1][2][3]. In the American dating convention, this is 9/3 - Yargle's power and toughness - which makes it Yargle Day.
Description
For the inaugural Yargle Day! event, the format was Standard Pauper, with some unique differences. Firstly, there were nine copies of Yargle, Glutton of Urborg (an uncommon) in every deck. There were exactly three copies of all the other non-basic cards in each of the five event decks. Players started with a Happy Yargle Day! emblem in play which reduced the cost of Frog spells by 
mana.
