Tbf, he's fought Wolverine, Storm, and Magik all on covers so the covers aren't an exact indication of who will be fighting one another.
Devil's advocate but where's the data to support that Magik drives sells, or Cyclops or any of the X-men outside of Wolverine? This is a weird take especially when Storm is more popular than Magik and many of the other X-men and has been for years, not that it was ever reflected in how she's been pushed.

They got extremely close, but it never got beyond friendship.
And during their reunion in Champions #5, Cyke behaved a bit like a big brother to Kamala (and I wouldn't be surprised if she sees him that way)
In addition, we already know that the Champions will ask for his support in the third issue
Cyclops was very close with Kamala but no romantic.
Whose cover is that?
Illyana is being used because writers want to use her, Storm isn't for the same reason. I suspect for the former fear of people complaining if they do anything that might look bad to her might be an issue.
I looked at it as an echo of Scott's close friendship with Carol Danvers back in the day - I don't think that had any romantic undertones either, but it was neat to see a repeat of the Cyclops/Ms Marvel friend/ship.
Although us not having any panels of Tyke reacting to who Kamala shipped him with in her fanfics is an epic missed opportunity. Almost a Bendis level one when I think about it.
Dark does not mean deep.
