I have a feeling that he is well aware of the Brood War scene, and thus is well aware of the game mechanics.
This translates to SC2, and no I am not trolling, as if you understand BW well, commentating SC2 is not all that difficult. You understand the importance of a strong econ, map control, unit compositions, etc.
If I remember correctly, Jarret actually also played the SC2 beta and commented about it on the Pure Pwnage site. I think he plays SC2 still, not sure about his league/skill though.

I'm looking forward to this! I wonder how much he actually knows about the game. I don't mind if he's at an Artosis or TotalBiscuit level of knowledge (or somewhere in between) - I just like casters with good voices - which Jeremy has.
Hopefully he does a good job. =)
Are you really putting Artosis and TB on the same level when it comes to game knowledge?..
Also, love PP and jeremy so will definetly watch this
I actually laughed pretty hard at that too. Don't get me wrong, TB is great at what he does, but that's a bit of an unintentional jab at everything Artosis has done.
I LOVED PP for so long, till they got their TV show deal, then it felt kinda wierd, but obviously still good. Very excited for this. Can't Wait!
Please read my second post. >.>

No, I meant Artosis is at the top of the knowledge pillar and TotalBiscuit is at the bottom. Hence my "or somewhere in between" part, I was referring to Jeremy being half way inbetween TB and Artosis when it comes to game knowledge.
My wording was a bit unclear though, sorry about that.
