Emblem Consistency

Hey y'all I'm a super new player and was hoping to get info on how people consistently get the emblems they are looking for.

Is there a way to force frying pan or spatula? Are their certain ways to gaurantee a specific Emblem shows up during the caramel rounds?

When ever I get into the top 4 it always feels like atleast one opponent gets the one Emblem critical to complete their comp... are they just pivoting to what ever Emblem they draw? What about comps that require two emblems?
