Wowcrendor is a machinimator (aka Machinima Artist) mostly known for his World of Warcraft machinimas, hence the name wowcrendor (though since then, he's been referred to as just Crendor which also happens to be his WoW Priest's name). He, however, does play and sometimes creates machinimas for other games such as League of Legends, Team Fortress 2, and more through his "I Felt Like Playing" series. He is part of the Polaris media group, which also houses names like Markiplier, Dodger, Jesse Cox, and the Game Grumps. He doesn't have a primary game genre preference, though some will argue it's primarily online games or MMOs (mostly because he has played WoW the most out of the games he's shown on his channel).

Presentation - As I've said before in the Markiplier review, presentation is everything. Wowcrendor's presentation isn't the most professional, especially his self-appointed title which is "The King of High Quality Non-Content". He is primarily co-oping with his friend, Jesse Cox, so the Non-Content aspect is perhaps referring to the fact his upload schedule isn't as persistent as a channel like Jesse's or Markiplier's is. His schedule ranges from 1-2 days between videos to as far as a week. This I find is a bit of a downside to him and most people, if they are used to people like the YouTubers mentioned who upload daily, might avoid subbing to him.

Content - Good content is still a subjective matter. Since I'm being critical right now, the following wording is based on my personal opinion. I still implore you to check out Crendor's channel despite anything I say.
Moving on.... Well, let's see... He is most notable for his Machimina work. I find majority of them to be funny and well done, even if the subject matter for certain ones is very simple (such as making fun of the fact Garrisons are added to WoW in Warlods of Draenor). Outside of Machinima content, his playthroughs of certain games can be appealing. His Leveling in WoW playthrough (which right now has 50 episodes) is a nice series to listen to, but I personally dislike the times he ends up playing one-off games in "I Felt Like Playing". That series is generally boring, tedious to watch because of the length and with mentioning the length, sometimes a single video can reach over 40 minutes long. He would have been better off splitting it into 2-3 parts at least. Lastily, his latest "special" with a friend (which was a Thanksgiving special) lasted much too long. He split it up into 8 parts, which seems a bit excessive especially since each part was minimum 20 minutes. As I said, I view Crendor as more of a Machinimator and not a Let's Player (which he seems to be adapting into when not making a Machinima, which is fine, go for it, Crendawg!).

Interaction - Interaction doesn't seem to happen as much as I've seen other YouTubers interact with their fan base with Wowcrendor. I know he does still talk to and interact with fans via his Twitter, but only 50K out of his 370K fans follow him there. His answers are usually short and there's not really much added other than him giving slighty longer sarcastic responses.

Overall Score: 7 out of 10
The overall score is a 7 out of 10 because I don't necessarily agree with how he runs his channel (and thus runs a CrendorIRL channel, which effectively runs into maintaining his main channel). He's still fun to watch and entertaining 85% of the time. I've expressed my gripes already, so I will not repeat myself.
