The spike in Valorant takes 45 seconds to detonate after it's planted. So, if you're on the defending team, you've got less than a minute to defuse it or say goodbye to the round. And remember, defusing the spike takes 7 seconds, so don't leave it till the last second!

Actually timed it during a game cuz my team was curious - it's exactly 45 seconds. No more, no less. Makes every second count when you're trying to defuse or guard it.
45 sec to boom time! Short, sweet, and to the explosive point. ?
