mtgs is just slacking Commander 2019 Spoilers 59/302
They only post the new cards for Commander precons - It's been that way for years. The reprints are listed in decklists, but why clutter up the spoiler page with those?
Occasionally Commander releases give us a Great Oak Guardian or Heirloom Blade, but for the most part these sets aren't known for giving us cube staples. I don't think we got anything last year either.
Busted cards from commander products is the norm, not the exception.

Sure. When we do get cards from Commander releases, they can tend to be great. My point wasn't that we don't get good cards from these sets, my point was that we shouldn't expect anything at all from these sets. We do occasionally get playable cards and sometimes those cards are bomb level good, but we also have years with actual nothing for us in the Commander set.
C11
Nothing
C13
Curse of Shallow Graves
Curse of Predation
C14
Myriad Landscape (Does this count?)
C15 - Arguably the best Commander year for us, but Great Oak Guardian is the only one of these that I run at 360.
Illusory Ambusher
Mirror Match
Corpse Augur
Rite of the Raging Storm
Great Oak Guardian
This year and last year really saw them leaning heavy into the Commander theme of these sets with cards that focus on Commander color identity, the Command Zone, and having multiple opponents. Unfortunately, these types of cards just can't really find their way into cube.
At least C18 had some great cube stuff at rare. C19 is pretty barren for peasant and traditional cube. They don't really design the sets for us, but it's still disappointing.

Treasure Cruise did nothing wrong.
