What best describes how Luther was "in the right place at the right time"?

Complaints over Church abuse had been brought up by people over the years, but Luther gained importance in part because of the invention of the printing press. It spread his message much easier than possible in the past.

Luther had just finished a very challenging German Monk course and he was well prepared to challenge the church on their unfair practices.

Luther complained about church abuse at the exact time a new Pope was taking over. This Pope was young and inexperienced, and Luther could outsmart him.

Luther was in the German city of Berlin right when Gutenberg invented the flying machine. Luther could travel quickly from city to city to spread his message of Church wrongdoings, bullying, and the use of indulgences.
