A typical competitive match in CS:GO can last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. It really depends on how balanced the two teams are and how many rounds go back and forth. The match is over when a team wins 16 rounds, but if it goes to 30 rounds without a winner, you're looking at overtime, which can extend the playtime even further!

Usually, it's about 45 minutes. But if you're having one of those days where every round is a fight to the death and it goes to overtime, you could be in there for over an hour. Make sure you've got snacks.

45 mins on avg, but can go longer. If ur team is steamrolling (or getting steamrolled), could be 30 mins.

Honestly, if you're looking for a quick game, competitive CS:GO ain't it. Pick casual mode for that.
