The title says it all.. Trying to find a way to make the chat text smaller, it's way to big!

The default client doesn't allow this, but you can change where it is on the screen with cg_chatBoxHeight. I set mine to 73 so it's up the top. You can also change how long it is on the screen with cg_chatBox with the setting being the number of milliseconds.

Hey Jaw I reset how long my chatbox stays on screen with cg_chatBox, and now typed messages no longer appear on my screen (they flash up for a millisecond at most), only duel and death messages appear. Do you know how I could reset or fix this?

If you're having a problems with height or other commands that frequently flashing in milliseconds with a chat and have to rely on console. Don't worry, I have these default commands for you so you can return back to normal. The commands is listed below:
/cg_chatbox 10000
/cg_chatboxheight 350
Hope this works for you!

I use chatboxheight 50 to keep it out of the way.
And chatbox (Time) 20000 (20 seconds) so i don't miss as much when I'm concentrating on a duel.
