Mini bio
How it started.
Caesar “Ceez” Noriega came from competitive gaming, including Gears of War. In 2010, they competed on season two of WCG Ultimate Gamer and finished third. Their YouTube bio dates their live career to 2010; early uploads included DayZ before H1Z1 became a focus.
Making their own kind of match.
H1Z1 gave Ceez room for both competition and improvisation. A 2015 spotlight from the game’s publisher highlighted their attempt to get a Battle Royale lobby to cooperate without killing one another. Ceez was also invited to that year’s H1Z1 Invitational at TwitchCon.
The Fortnite years.
The move from H1Z1 to Fortnite brought a larger audience. In 2018, Ceez joined Luminosity Gaming as a content creator, featured in NerdOut’s The Fortnite Rap Battle, and teamed with Xavier Woods at the E3 Celebrity Pro-Am. The pair finished 24th out of 50 teams, each earning $10,000 for charity.
What fans find now.
The Viewage remains the name around the community, including the official Discord. Recent uploads range from ARC Raiders encounters to WARDOGS piloting, eBaseball, and Machine Party with friends. By November 2026, Deadlock bootcamp streams were tracking progress across the hero roster.
