Awaken the Echoes
Abuelo's Awakening is a utility sorcery that trades an empty grave for a ready creature or artifact. Cast with {X}{3}{W}, it returns a target artifact or non Aura enchantment card from your graveyard to the battlefield and places X additional +1/+1 counters on it. The returned permanent also becomes a 1/1 Spirit with flying in addition to its other types which makes it resilient against ground blockers and useful as both value and tempo depending on the board state.
From a deckbuilding perspective Abuelo's Awakening rewards artifacts and enchantments you are willing to recur. Use it to reclaim a mana engine or a key equipment and turn it into an evasive attacker. The card fits into control shells that need late game threats and into midrange lists that want repeatable value. Flavor ties to Lost Caverns of Ixalan are clear as ancestral magic manifests an Echo that carries both function and a lane through the sky.
