A Blink in Time season new cards
Season 5’s theme, A Blink in Time, is based on Marvel’s multiversal powerhouses, Exiles. Debuting in 2001, Exiles is a team of X-Men-adjacent characters who are plucked from their worlds to correct “hiccups” in reality across time and space.
Five Exiles characters—Blink, Nocturne, Sage, Namora, and Sasquatch—will be released throughout the season. Blink will be available to Season Pass owners, while the remaining cards will be available weekly in both Spotlight Cache and Token Shop.
