At any rate, the average game duration for GSL is 00:07:51. You can review the statistics here:

Note that the statistics say 11 minutes, but that's 11 in-game minutes and since tournament games are played on "Fastest" mode with a 1.4 multiplier that translates to roughly 8 minutes.
If you want to see how actual tournament games are played, here is the most recent GSL playlist, which is considered the premier SC2 tournament:

Feel free to breeze through any random game of your choice, most finish within 8 minutes, a lot of them finish within 6 minutes, and on rare occasion you get games that go 15 minutes or longer.
- aflag 4y agoThose statistics are from wings of liberty though (10 years ago). Looking through the playlist you sent the average length seems closer to 15 minutes.
- Kranar 4y agoI decided to take the very first 12 games of the playlist and averaged them out, it comes out to 9 minutes and 23 seconds. I don't have a way to automate this and don't have another source for how long modern games take, but sure, for the sake of argument we can say a game is closer to 10 minutes instead of 8 minutes. It doesn't really change anything.
- robertlagrant 4y agoIs this the average game, or ten games from the top tournament played on high speed from ten years ago? :)
