Losing your temper and smashing things/screaming at the world/punching a hole in drywall is perfectly acceptable in the privacy of your room. Doing it in a live tournament setting is BM. "Would you consider him BM?" How utterly absurd; anyone is capable of losing their temper and being BM, that doesn't mean they are BM. Doing it every time would make you a BM player.
To paraphrase IdrA a bit: "If you don't get mad when you lose, then you don't take the game serious enough". If he was cursing at him it would be a different story.
The only way that sentence would be relevant would be if Idra had said "If you don't lose your temper when you lose.." Of course getting angry is part of the game. Losing your temper isn't.
More to the point, the only reason I posted was this absurd notion anytime someone who is not known for poor manners and then loses their temper and does something that is BM, becomes BM.
I am not exactly sure what happened but breaking your own gear because of frustration is definitely not bm. If you are frustrated why shouldn't you be allowed to show it as long as you aren't hurting anybody. This is as stupid as the NBA rules for technical fouls. Starcraft is a very intense game and it's very easy to get tangled up in your emotions after a game so these things happen naturally. Some are better at coping with it than others but come on you don't have to hide your frustration. I hope Demuslim can do better next time.

You may be posting in this thread, but can you make a comeback from posting so badly?
Does anyone know DeMusliM's mouse settings? I know he uses Steelseries Xai but I don't know what dpi and mouse sensitivity he uses. His mouse movement is so fluid and accurate.
