Each hit matches a thing that forced him to accept the truth. Hearing the truth about his birth from Tam, breaking the door, saving Egwene, and the words of Machin Shin. People speculated that he also chanelled unconsciously to keep Mat safe though they didn’t depict that (probably to avoid showing Mat in this episode). The last straw that pushed him to accept the truth is his conversation with Min. If anything this episode shows up how stubborn he can be.
Seems like it’s going to be a pain in the ass to remind this kid how to laugh :P

Pretty sure that was him using flame and the void
Yes. It seemed like he was missing earlier because he was scared of the void because he finds the power there. Then he gets laid, wakes up, and is determined to save Egwene and his friends so he finally embraces what he is.
The only issue is the only times he’s channeled so far he’s been acting on emotion and reflex, and they haven’t even mentioned the Oneness yet.
I don't mind that too much, like Nynaeve he mostly channels on instinct especially at first. I don't remember him using the power on purpose without his life being threatened (or being under undue stress) until maybe the conversation with Eggy and Elayne in the Stone.
Me either. I more so meant that since the show writers haven’t included anything about the flame and the void yet they may have had him missing just because he was conflicted and unfocused, then later hitting his mark when he’s determined and his choice to acknowledge he’s the dragon had been made.
I still like thinking it as stated above though, just acknowledging I might be reading into it too much.
NO! I AM MYSELF! I AM LEWS THERIN TELAMON! I AM MEEEEEeeeee!
Idk, as great as the flame and the void is in the books, I'll be interested to see how that plays out in a visual form. So far we haven't really seen that sudden uncanny calm come over Rand, nor do we really see the supernatural calm in the Aes Sedai.

Why don't you try claiming I am a Trolloc?
Some spectacular post-nut clarity.
It kind of seemed like him failing to use the flame and the void
He failed when he was still trying to avoid the truth, succeeded when he stopped.
Was like a video game zoom in focus mode.
