The Blade artwork has sparked speculation about his potential Season 2 playable debut. Many players anticipate Season 1 concluding with The Fantastic Four rescuing New York City by defeating Dracula and freeing Blade and Strange. Community discussions suggest Blade would excel as a Duelist with leaked details indicating a transformative ultimate ability similar to Magik and Hulk, enhancing his combat capabilities and granting wall-piercing vision.

Beyond Blade, Season 0 leaks revealed Ultron's complete ability kit, positioning him as a potential Strategist class character with healing and support capabilities. While initially expected in Season 1, NetEase reportedly adjusted plans with The Fantastic Four release. As always, players should consider leaks unconfirmed until official announcements arrive, but the growing content pipeline continues generating excitement for Marvel Rivals' future.
