Is Irelia's brother Zelos even canon anymore?

Or was he deleted in the Great Retcon?

Thing about the Great Retcon is that we don't even know all of the details of it and what it has retconned.

Because the lore is so stagnant and un-updated.

Why...would he not be canon? They've pretty much outright said the world is exactly the same, minus the IoW. Did Zelos have anything to do with the League? No? Then he's still around. Or not around, as the case may be.

Zelos wasn't retconned by the big retcon,because the great retcon only retconned the IoW and nothing else,but it is possible that they retcon him later anyway.

Except the map of Runeterra has changed quite a bit of the shapeless supercontinet we saw before.

Like I said they will retcon some stuff anyway. The change of shape of the map would have most likely happened even if they didn't remove the IoW.

And if it were shapeless before, those parts weren't retconned so much as filled in.

Not sure, Some places really changed, like Bilgewater, Shadow Isles and Freljord....Ill just wait until the new world map comes up. The current map is just somewhat usable for now, but in all regards it is not canon anymore.

We just dont know for now. Saying anything else is up to the persons interpretation. Many things from the old lore has changed but some things have been expanded upon, so we just dont know until a Ionian event.

He wasn't linked to the IoW as far as I remember, so probably? I guess it's up in the air to see if Narrative wants to do anything else with her.

I am pretty sure Riot is confusing the word 'retcon' with 'erase'.

Just dont get your hopes up for Zelos (he was kinda a D-list backgroung character anyways).
