Another reprint in the 4th 2017 Tournament Pack for the OCG. Longer term players may recognize it from the classic P.A.C.M.A.N. Deck of yore.

17TP-JP401 デス・ラクーダ Des Lacooda
Level 3 EARTH Zombie-Type Effect Monster
ATK 500
DEF 600
(1) Once per turn: You can change this card to face-down Defense Position.
(2) When this card is Flip Summoned: Draw 1 card.

For reference’s sake, this card was last reprinted in Japan and Asia during June 2008 when Structure Deck: Undead World was released (The OCG version of Structure Deck: Zombie World).

The likely point of this card’s reprinting is most likely to do with the flurry of Flip Effect related themes being released in the OCG currently, most notably Subterrors and Tindangle. Much like Blowback Dragon being reprinted for the sake of the Bandit Keith cards in Legend Duelist 2.
