Provenance

Where it came from

Fireslinger was released as a promotional card for the Friday Night Magic program in 2002. Originally appearing in the Urza's Saga expansion, this version features unique frame treatments exclusive to the FNM promo series, which were distributed as prizes to participants at local gaming stores to encourage consistent weekly play and foster community engagement within the Magic: The Gathering ecosystem.

The artwork was provided by illustrator Jeff Reitz, who captured the card's theme through a dynamic depiction of a pyromancer in the midst of spellcasting. Reitz’s interpretation emphasizes the volatile nature of the character, aligning with the card's mechanical function of dealing damage at the cost of the player's own life. The card is regarded by collectors as a notable example of early organized play rewards from a formative era of the game's competitive history.
