This technique is a way to optimize the land/spell ratio for decks that are very close between 16 and 17 lands

Many decks rely heavily on their commander either being cast or being in play, and a card that completely locks out your opponents can make for a very unfun game

Sudden Substitution The idea behind Sudden Substitution is to cast a cheap, meaningless spell and swap it for the best creature on board
