""First, the world of RWBY: Ice Queendom is NOT an alternate universe or a reboot. While the story is set in the same universe as the main show, we're calling it "canon adjacent". The new show is incredibly faithful to the original, while also taking some fun new liberties to switch things up a bit. The first two episodes of RWBY: IQ will recap V1 – V2 before kicking things off into a bold new adventure, full of new characters, new settings, new surprises, and (of course) new Grimm."
So it's literally going the manga route, retelling the beginning and then branching off in a different direction with new stuff

"While changes made to the existing RWBY content are not technically considered canon, it's a story that absolutely could exist alongside other RWBY content — we just wanted the Japan team to be able to have as much fun with it as they wanted. Now as to what the story of the show is all about….well you'll just have to wait and see!""

"Canon Adjacent"
Bro just say that it's a faithful AU that follows the rules of the verse.

its based that its essentially an AU, but i wish they'd just be honest about it instead of dancing around it

They do this type of stuff with basically any official material RWBY that isn't strictly the show itself, even when it doesn't make sense.

Don’t they do this so they have plausible deniability later? If its good it’s canon, if it doesn’t do well, it’s not. I think I even remember one of the writers stating for a previous work, I think the comics, that’s its canon until it’s not.

no its described as Canon adjacent, so any feats that go on in Ice Queendom would apply to Beacon key onwards

we can also recalc the cliff feat using the anime as reference

Eh I wouldn't use the anime version of feats over the original ones.
- 6,274

It's not like I don't want some possible upgrades, it's just that unless a feat is super vague or the author preferred the newer version over the old one, we usually utilize the original version of the feat. And another reason is that while Ice Queendom has shown us stuff we didn't know about, it has also skipped over certain scenes, and even certain events didn't happen like in the original series or occur very differently, so using the anime version of feats over the og versions is sus.

Isn't "canon adjacent" (still a stupid term) basically that the events could have happened and fit in the main show but they didn't occur? I still think they could have just said canon AU.
Anyways, unless rooster teeth is gonna say that Ice Queendom takes precedence over Volume 1, the og series will be used over it. Now of course if there are new feats that don't utterly break the scaling, then we can probably use them.
