is this the same card as gangel de-volution??
i can't fint it anywhere listed but i have the card. the text is the
same as de-volution but ativism requires a gangrel to bring it out to
play it on a gangrel. it apparently gives it -1 bleed.

any ideas??

It's the same card. From Jyhad to VTES they made some changes. Some cards
changed names (Camille Dev. to Raven, Kine Dominance to Dominate Kine, etc.).
Apparently they thought Gangrel Atavism sounded cooler (only does if you know
your bio). The difference in needing a Gangrel vs. playing on a Gangrel was
another correction. This was supposed to be the clan-hoser for Gangrel (like
Cultivated Blood Shortage, Letter From Vienna, etc.). But in Jyhad, they kind
of messed it up. Doesn't make it much of a hoser if you need to have a member
of that clan (or at least makes it less effective). I think they made similar
changes with Malkavian Dementia and Brujah Frenzy.

it shouldn't need gangrel to play (like malkavian dementia doesn't need
malkavian and tragic love affair doesn't need toreador). i guess they
kinda meant that to play gangrel atavism there must be a gangrel in play
but it doesn't have to be yours.

Gangrel Atavism is the replacement in VTES for the Jyhad Gangrel De-
evolutionn. Gangrel Atavism, Malkavian Dementia and Tragic Love Affair
all are misprints: they don't require any clan to play.

But Brujah Frenzy does require a Brujah to play? If that is correct, what is
the reasoning behing that?

Curious,

It does not require a Brujah to play.
