Valorant, Riot Games’ competitive shooter, is a thrilling experience, especially with the top-tier Vandal skins. However, the duration of a Valorant match can be a concern for those with limited time. This article will delve into the average length of different Valorant game modes.
The duration of a Valorant match can fluctuate based on the game mode. A competitive Valorant match typically lasts between 30 to 40 minutes. However, one-sided games, where all 13 rounds are won or lost instantly, can conclude as early as 20 minutes.
Both Competitive and Unrated modes are best out of 13 rounds, with Competitive potentially extending into overtime rounds up to 25 if it ends in a 13-13 draw. This implies that the maximum match time for a Competitive game can stretch up to 70 minutes. In fact, Riot Games has recorded a Valorant match lasting over 1 hour and 30-40 minutes in a VCT match between TSM and GenG.
For those seeking a shorter game mode, Spike Rush is an excellent choice. A Spike Rush match in Valorant averages between 8 to 15 minutes. This mode offers the most action in the shortest time, with the maximum number of rounds capped at 8. However, the catch is the random weapons, which might not be everyone’s cup of tea.
Deathmatch is the quickest game mode in Valorant, with an average match length of 7-9 minutes. A Deathmatch concludes when a player reaches 40 kills or if the timer hits 9 minutes, with the player with the most kills emerging victorious.
