Sion's "Reborn" promo page has been taken down. Some interesting Noxus lore changes in the works?

It seems that for a while now the link to Sion's Promo, "Reborn", now doesn't lead to the beautiful multimedia promo anymore.

http://promo.euw.leagueoflegends.com/en/reborn/#

I don't think it's going to stay down as it's beautiful and has a ton of story in it. But it's disappearance could mean that some of the things in it are being altered.

What are they altering? My guess is replacing Swain's model (Swain's old model gets a short cameo there), but could be a ton of things. With the lore changes we got recently it wouldn't surprise me if some of the events discussed between Boram, the Black Rose and Swain there are no longer canon.

Who knows what Rito has in store?

A lot of the promo pages were taken down, i think that is just an error with Riot servers(or hosting) since the link to the promo page still in the Universe Page of Yasuo and Gnar who have the same problem.

I don't see them changing Sion's lore changing considering how much time and effort went into his VGU. Considering the references to Blood Magic in the Darkin stories, we can assume that's mostly still canon.

I would assume this was taken down because that story referenced heavily conversations between Vlad, LeBlanc, and most importantly Swain. To avoid trouble in the future, it's better to wipe the slate clean and re-tell Sion's story again with new Swain in mind.

I hope it’s still canon. Otherwise I’m going to beg for something better and fear for something worse.

Also, if anyone is confused on why Sion is a failed resurrection when Vlad has been around for so long, consider this: Sion doesn’t respect magic. Why would the Black Rose want someone with high military power who doesn’t respect magic? It’s easier to make a weapon to throw at enemies then bring back a potential threat.

Basically they lied to Boram and got him in dept to them despite their “failure”. They played him.

inb4 "nobody was checking it so we took it down"

Might be onto something, his universe page doesn't have a link to lore like Talon/Kat do. Might have always been like this, I don't check it much.
