Hey GPlaser,

I like the spicy Fling + Kari Zev's Expertise combo but, all in all its along shot to score the K.O. with Champion of the Parish + Fling . If you run your dream pull/nut draw turn 1 land and Parish, turn 2 land - [Thalia's Lieutenant] swing, deal 3 damage. Turn 3 land Thatcher Revolt (opponent has no blockers no tricks)swing, 6 more damage from Parish - 4 from the Lieutenant - 3 from revolt Game over. In short looking to Fling to win off a 1 or 2 drop that grows is just more win( from here boros charm wins, if they fetch and shock a land in that 1 hp, in short you won).

Fling to win works better off of things like Shivan Dragon, were you swing, pump, hit then, fling and then smile (18 damage 2 cards, I'm ok with that).

You could/can keep fling and Expertise combo in the deck but, I would keep fling as the, "Oh you want to Fatal Push my Poor not so little any more Parish well then, Ill just fling him at your face then"

No matter how you look at it Fling is like a crappy insurance plan, it does protect you from total loss (if played correctly) but, you still get 2 for 1 in card pool.
