    I do everything while using Blinn or BasicMaterial. I almost never switch to something other than that. I also like to move the light around while I work, helps to see shapes better.

    I tried many many matcaps to help with my work, but I didn't like any of them. But some of them are pretty decent for rendering in Zbrush.

    Agreed. sometimes it hinders your work because you start to rely on the light information the matcap is giving you and your bakes might not turn out as well as you think.

    Shapula has some cool matcaps.
    Watch Hazardous stream on Twitch and ask him about his mat caps too - I did that a year ago and use them all the time. Unfortunately I'm at work right now and I don't have them installed.
