21:50 - I've literally had games of Deadlock, as high Archon, where the entire enemy team leaves and it still takes longer than 8 minutes to actually clear a single lane and kill the patron. That's actually wild they lost that fast.

[@Gorbgorbenson]

The fastest game Ive been in was 12:30.

[@Tyler.8046]

@Gorbgorbenson I had a game where I killed the enemy lash two or three times before level 3 and he immediately abandoned the match. All but one of the enemy team left and I'm pretty sure it still took us until about 7 or 8 minutes into the match to actually just clear everything. For context to anyone who doesn't play deadlock, laning phase is "scheduled" to end at 9 minutes. It's supposed to be almost impossible to win or lose before that point because everything has significant resistances, killing minions gives you a majority of the souls up front (without needing to secure), and towers do a significant amount of damage to heroes that dive. You also receive increased resistances while standing under walkers to make defending easier.
