+## What is Linea?
+
 [Linea](https://linea.build/) is a developer-ready layer 2 network, scaling Ethereum by providing
 an Ethereum-equivalent environment in which to execute transactions, which are then submitted to
 Ethereum Mainnet through a zero-knowledge rollup.
 
 This documentation repository is built using [Docusaurus](https://docusaurus.io/), and the site
 itself is published at [`docs.linea.build`](https://docs.linea.build/).
 
-See [more](https://docs-template.consensys.net/) information about how Consensys uses Docusaurus.

+## Override state values
+
+You can override an account with temporary state values before making the call. This allows you to
+make temporary state changes without affecting the actual blockchain state.
+
+The following example estimates the cost for transferring an ERC-20 token for an account which does not
+have the required assets onchain.
+
+The example sets a custom ETH balance for the sender (to cover gas costs) and modifies the account's
+balance within the ERC-20 contract's storage for the duration of the call.
