Changeling (This card is every creature type.)

Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Crib Swap is a compact, flexible 2W instant that best supports tempo and white midrange/control game plans by exiling a threatening creature at instant speed and replacing it with only a 1/1 changeling— a clean tempo trade that also denies graveyard recursion and enters-to-die triggers. Because the removal exiles, it’s especially potent against reanimation/combo lines and creatures with enter-the-graveyard synergies; the created 1/1 is small enough that a follow-up push or a sweeper can usually neutralize it. Deckbuilding-wise, slot Crib Swap into a proactive white shell with other cheap interaction (Swords/Path) and 2–3 sweepers (Wrath of God/Terminus) so you can convert the tempo gain into card advantage and not gift an opponent a tribal lord trigger—the changeling token counts for tribe synergies—so bring in graveyard hate like Rest in Peace against reanimator-heavy metas. Use it as a clean, hate-bearing answer rather than a long-term board solution.
