Probably a cool dude IRL but his commentator persona is hilariously cheesy IMO. All he needs is a thin mustache to seal the deal.
He is a great commentator though. Tasteless is also the man and has a great voice for commentating.
Artosis is by far the best commentator. Tasteless sits there with his bulldog smoker's voice and just adds flavor with attempts at humor.
They actually talk about things like the metagame, and lots of high level stuff in general... I don't benefit directly from play by play commentary ('The protoss is using psi storm'), thats what my eyes are for.
To each their own though, people in lower leagues can definitely benefit just from watching and learning basic build orders and counters.
Regardless, you won't improve your micro/macro by watching commentated games anyways, only via playing!
