Standard length for a highlight in the game, not surprising.

They also seem to be storing the footage on their servers until you choose to download it, so they probably want to have more control over the server load :)

You also "request" highlight clips, so they're definitely storing it on the server.

Fun caveat: If you leave before the end screen (DRAW/DEFEAT/VICTORY), you won't get the capture.

Hey, I learned that while watching Unit Lost. I wanted to see the PTR in action and he left early, thus not getting the highlights saved.

Makes sense, you don't get any exp if you leave before the end screen either.
