Based on the timing and the unpronounceable name, the Midweek Magic event scheduled for the first week in September is likely to be similar to last year's "Yargle Day" event.
They've updated the Midweek Magic page now and it's not that similar:
So you have to build your own deck, but it's all-access. I like it. There are 13 possible commanders (that search says 14 but I'm pretty sure you'll only be able to use the rebalanced Uurg, not that you'd want to use the original anyway), and you'll definitely at least be in either green or black.
"Cheaper to play and hungry for power" might indicate the same emblem as last year: frogs cost 2 less and when a frog ETBs, you may sacrifice a creature to draw a card and have the frog gain all the abilities of the sacrificed creature.
It's 9/3 (in America), which makes sense as Yargle Day.
