The one card that eludes you

So I've been playing since close to release. And ignoring mythics, I'm wondering if anyone else has a similar condition. Something I've noticed is that in all this time, I am still missing one uncommon from Origins: War Oracle. I have every other uncommon from that set, but just cannot find this one.

Anyone else have a relatively common card that they just can't seem to get?

    Expert Influence... have tried to get it since I started playing. No luck.

    For me it's two - Sphinx's Tutelage and Tamiyo's Journal. Sphinx is more egregious because it's an uncommon.

    Drana's Emmisary, Kessig Forgemaster, Call the Bloodline. There are a bunch of rares I wish I had as well and don't, but again all three are uncommon so it's particularly frustrating.

    I've been lucky? and have been able to complete the sets of commons and uncommon's relatively easily.
    I am missing one rare from origins and it drives me insane, Languish..... I can't pull it no matter what I do.

    Grip of Desolation and Inner Struggle. Mythic uncommons for me. Then I'd sure love to pull Turn to Frog.

    I'm missing three Origins uncommons but Blessed Spirits is the one that irks me since it would have been useful when Terror in the Shadows first started.

    Sylvan Messenger. The only uncommon or common I'm missing.

    Mythics that elude me:
    Thopter Spy Network
    Engulf the Shore
    Exert Influence
    Crush of Tentacles
    Drowner of Hope

    bit of a theme, there...

    From Under the Floorboards was one of the four pre-Kaladesh black rares I didn't have.

    I also have never pulled a plated crusher…

    I'm missing Harbinger. I have it in my alt and it drives me nuts.

    I just got Rhox Maulers last week... War Oracle had eluded me for about 7 months...

    Search so hard for serene Stewart and flashbag marauder. Opened enough origins and Bfz theoretical
  • Wow, definitely some cards that I've taken for granted that some people still hunting for!

    I find any of the cheaper black destruction spells would make me very happy - Grip of Desolation, To the Slaughter, basically anything better than Scour from Existence.

    I went for so long without grip of Desolation! It's a game changer!

    Until a couple of days before Kaladesh came out, Vessel of Ephemera was the only Common I did not have.

    Aren't you glad you finally got it. Now you can compete in the top tiers at last!

    Yeah I was in that situation twice, found tunnel geopede when innistrad came out, and now is 2 or 3 months since I started waiting for skeleton key.

    At least I recently got iroas champion.

    Hey, it's one of the three cards that makes 2 spirits in one shot, I'm not using it, but it's usefulness is a little higher than zero.

    Still missing Drana's Emissary despite playing since the start of the game and opening many many many BFZ packs. For Origins, I'm also missing Ravaging Blaze (R).

    Missing Tangleclaw Werewolf from EM too but still hopeful for that one.
