According to Twitter user RivalsLeaks, the first leak shows Blade’s character model found in the game’s files. He’s wearing a red and black costume with a modern Marvel Rivals twist, complete with dreadlocks and a gold, medieval-style sword (though this might be a placeholder). Of course, he’s also rocking his iconic shades.

The second leak, also shared by RivalsLeaks, reveals Ultron’s character icon, the image seen at the bottom of the screen or in the hero select menu. While this is less concrete, the fact that it’s a fully detailed icon suggests the character might be getting ready for release as we've already seen glimpses of him before.
