It's a death. The fact that you get +1 to your deaths count is an intentional penalty of self-destructing, along with -1 kill and -5 score.

yeah well the current anti cheat is so crappy so either remove the self destruct penalty or remove the anti cheat. you have any idea how many times i self destructed because of laggers and hackers? couple times i spent more than 5 minutes building a minefield around myself and then a teammate just lags up to me and make me self destruct. and when theres gold i climb onto someone, he starts flying and i go up with him and self destruct. there have also been a lot of mults on my team who lag on purpose so they can make me self destruct with anti cheat.

 

so, again, if you dont remove that crappy anti cheat then at least remove this penalty

I don’t believe this is true anymore. I’m pretty sure it’s only +1 death, no -1 kill. I’m not 100% sure but they may have even got rid of the score removal.

I think you do not get minus kill if you kill yourself with own splash DMG, but you do get minus kill if you self-destruct by using delete button.

-5 score exists, but -1 kill was gone.

Tried with rail, you can't do self damage there :p
