How many ways are there to open Grand Market?
I know of one, but wonder if you can come up with others.

How is "open" defined? Buy before the first shuffle?

But not in the "real" sense ;)

I'll define open loosely as any cards you gain on the first 2 turns OR (if you use more than 2 turns) any cards gained before your first real end of deck shuffle. So you could open 10 Mandarins for instance.
And you could "open" Curse if an opponent buys Ill-Gotten Gains.

This should make it possible to come up with something creative.

The one I had in mind was:

P1 buys Noble Brigand, you reveal Estate + Copper
P2 buys Noble Brigand, you reveal Estate + Copper
You buy Vault with 5 Copper, draw Estate, reshuffle, draw Vault + 3 random cards, during your next turn you play Vault, discard everything and buy GM for $6.

You probably don't even need P2 for that.

Your definition of opening is way too broad.

Indefinitely buy Mandarin, opp ambassadors you a GM.
