Sébastien Debs, better known as Ceb, is a French professional Dota 2 player for OG. He was a member of the team that won the multi-million dollar International 2018 and 2019 tournaments, as well as the team's coach when they won four Dota Major Championships.
Career
Sébastien Debs' professional Dota 2 career started with Team Shakira in 2011. The team first gained notability after placing 4th in Dreamhack Winter 2011. He left the organisation and decided to join a rehash of Mortal Teamwork led by Troels "Synderen" Nielsen in 2012. His first The International tournament with the team ended up last in their group with a score of 3-11. Debs joined Alliance in 2015, but the team posted mediocre results and failed to qualify for The International 2015. In May 2016, OG invited him to coach a new founded organization. They were dominant at the Frankfurt, Manila, Boston and Kiev Majors.[2][3] Following Resolut1on's departure from the team in March 2018, he was a substitute player before officially filling the offlane position for the team at The International 2018, where he also changed his in-game handle from 7ckngMad to Ceb.[4] Along with the rest of OG, Debs became the first two-time winner of The International after the team's victory at The International 2019.[5] In January 2020, he announced he would be leaving the active roster in order to develop other players on the team before rejoining the active roster that July.[6][7]
