Title: Fling (Best Card ever?)
Post by: Mattao19 on November 08, 2013, 01:30:14 AM
I play {Uril, the Miststsalker} in EDH and for those of you who know him you know how monstrous he becomes! So I had him at 16/16 late in the game and all my opponents (3 of them) and me were below 15. It had flying from {Pollenbright Wings} so I swing at a random opponent (I roll a die to be fair) bc I'd kill anyone who i attack so I kill a player get 16 1/1's and pass turn next turn a guy wraths I say screw you and {Fling} my Uril to kill him. The last guy know his future demise bc I had more than enough mana to recast him just scooped lol it was fun to say the least!

(PS I know fling isn't OP, it's just so much fun!)

I love buffing up a {nivix cyclops} or {kiln fiend} with one drop spells in my UR pauper deck and then dropping a {fling}

I have a single  {Fling} in my  {Phyrexian Dreadnought} deck. It's so good. You can fling a 12/12 after attacking or in response to the ETB trigger. It's won me several games out of nowhere.

I do run torpor orb but I have other enablers too. The deck I made, within a few cards is in Legacy under U/R Stiflenaut. If you fling in response to the ETB trigger, the trigger resolves without a valid target. It's basically a 3 cmc 2 card combo to do 12 dmg.

I liked using  {Fling} with  {Zealous Conscripts}.  There is nothing better than stealing your opponents creature and then killing them with it.

I enjoy using the manticore that does the same thing as the conscripts.

The {conquering manticore} has no haste but does have flying and a +2/+2 over the conscript for one more mana

I wasn't playing at that time, but you are right. That is better.

{fling} + {Desecration Demon} make for a killer combo.

Especially when your opponent has spent the game sac tapping.

Wow! Demons price has skyrocketed! When did this happen? I did a mono black bleed deck for my nephew about a year ago and he was like 4 bucks.

Yep but remember (in EDH) that {Fling} deals the damage not progentius
