The first iteration of the tournament was held in the spring of 2020. It was edited by Jacob Reed, Olivia Lamberti, Jakob Myers, Adam Fine, Kevin Wang, Will Holub-Moorman, and Olivia Murton.
A combination of bad sentiment early in the season and the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic meant that the set was played by fewer teams than expected. The set was considered to be of good quality, though it overshot its difficult mark and consequently there were low power counts across all mirrors. A retrospective was posted on the forums to discuss the logistics of the set's writing.
The question writers were Ethan Ashbrook, Mitch Baron, Michael Borecki, Gus Carvell, Vincent Du, Ganon Evans, Eve Fleisig, Kevin Fan, Vincent Fan, Zachary Foster, William Grossman, Gerhardt Hinkle, Boyang Hou, Montagu James, Abhinav Karthikeyan, Zachary Knecht, Suttree de Lorge, Eric Lu, Caroline Mao, Juliet Mayer, Connor Mayers, Robet Muniz, Pedro Juan Orduz, Kiran Rachamallu, Rahual Rao-Pothuraju, Alejia Rodriguez, Karsten Rynearson, Jonathen Settle, Varun Sikand, Chris Sims, Evan Suttell, Rohan Vora, Luc Wetherbee, Kevin You, Justin Zhang, and Richard Zhang.
