Where it came from
Fling was originally released as a common card in the 1999 Stronghold expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The card represents a classic red-aligned mechanic where a player sacrifices a creature to deal direct damage to a target, emphasizing the high-risk, high-reward nature of chaotic red magic. This particular version was released as part of the DCI Promos program, a long-standing initiative by Wizards of the Coast to reward tournament participants and store volunteers with alternate-art or promotional versions of existing cards.
The artwork for this promotional printing was created by artist Christopher Rush, one of the most iconic illustrators in the history of the game. Rush's design leans into the visceral, elemental feel of the spell, utilizing his signature high-contrast style to depict the kinetic energy of the action. As a DCI promo, this card was distributed through organized play channels, making it a sought-after functional collectible for competitive players who valued the card's utility alongside the prestige of its promotional status.
