yeah, luck is integral to his character, not something tacked on later by a ter'angreal. the finns call him gambler and trickster, and i don't they'd do that if he just boosted his luck with some device. the real question is what supercharged his luck after tar valon? the healing process? i wish we had more details on that healing.

Nope. Just "growing up" I guess. Like Rand starting to channel or Perring gaining wolf-powers.

Possibly true, but it's debatable if that was Mat's luck - 15/01/2011 10:04:45 AM 1137 Views
actually, his luck started much AFTER the dagger *NM* - 15/01/2011 01:28:12 PM 485 Views

About his luck... Does anyone still remember Liandrin and the 12 other Black Ajah sisters? - 15/01/2011 07:36:42 PM 1369 Views
