Has anyone else noticed this?

I get that it’s power creep, bigger map, etc. but you used to be able to play a turbo match and on average it would last no longer than 20 minutes.

Now, i’ve noticed that they are consistently reaching towards 40 minutes and beyond unless it’s an absolute stomp.

I love Dota, but I just don’t have the time to be locked into a single match for 40+ minutes at a time.
