Within the pages of comic books, many characters have powers rivaling that of gods, or even more in some cases, so if Deacon Frost shows up in "Blade" without his doppelgangers, he won't be the first to have his powers tweaked to adhere to a studio's more grounded take.
"Guardians of the Galaxy" features the most infamous character nerf in the MCU, with the trilogy changing Drax (Dave Bautista) to make him much more grounded. In the comics, his strength rivals Thanos, and he has many telepathic abilities, including sensing wherever the Mad Titan is in the universe. Understandably, James Gunn omitted these abilities from the live-action version, with Drax only really sporting his enhanced strength, but even that was nerfed.
Fox's "X-Men" movies are also full of similar creative changes. Most notably, the films almost eliminate Rogue's backstory and many of her powers. In the comics, she has the powers of Wonder Man, giving her super strength, flight, and speed. In the movies, Rogue only really has her power and memory absorption abilities, giving her a more realistic story.
With "Blade" being in development hell and the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike not helping its progress, no one knows what to expect or when to expect it. After numerous script rewrites and general production issues, any character from the comics could be on the table. For example, through all of the production chaos, Deacon Frost and his doppelganger powers could maneuver their way into the final product. While we wouldn't bet on it, development hell is a weird place to be, and who knows what kind of demons and monsters could come out of it.
