it just grew more overt and he learned how to harness it much later. It's like saying Perrin wasn't a Wolf Brother at that time simply because he had yet to meet a Wolf.
Are you sure?
I've always believed Mat's luck started after the trip to Rhuidean along with the Ashandarei and all the other "gifts". Is there any reference to it before that episode? Do we have any reason to suspect so?

Key to the final battle is in Matt's first "Lucky" incident.

You think him taking the Dagger was lucky?

If you prefer, "The pattern working thru him" rather than "lucky"

That's the first time we see it overtly. But there is nothing to say it wasn't there before

Maybe it will come up in AMoL and be used against him?

The second seems much more likely, and in keeping with the series.

No - Mat has always been lucky, winning more than losing.
