It's not aplicable in this case. With EFFECT_COMBAT_EVENT you don't have info in that event to filter it. You want to have all events where the player is involved, but you only get the "target" unit. (A debuff is cast by the player but then active on another unit, so filtering by player would filter out all debuffs)
You also can not give a list of abilities. Instead you would need to register each ability on its own. (see the custom ability part in CombatMetrics.lua)
