In a single-elimination tournament with 20 competitors, there will be a total of 19 matches. Each match consists of a 1v1game lasting 3 minutes.

Considering the time it takes to set up matches between players, switch players, and some potential downtime, we can estimate that each match might take around 5 minutes to complete.

Estimated tournament duration = 5 minutes/match × 19 matches

Estimated tournament duration = 95 minutes

So, based on these estimates, the tournament with 20 competitors following a single-elimination format and 3-minutematches would take approximately 95 minutes (or 1 hour and 35 minutes).
