Short list, and one entry on it does more work than the rest combined.

Sprint and slide are one combination, not two options. That is the whole movement game.

Key	Action	Why it matters
`Shift`	Sprint	Half of the only escape that works.
`C`	Crouch / crawl	For not being seen, not for getting away.
`Shift + C`	Slide	The other half. Chained with sprint, it breaks line of sight.
`F`	Flashlight	Essential in No Power, useful everywhere else.

You can also switch between first and third person. Third person shows you more of the corridor behind you, which is worth more than the framing you lose.

On the movement itself, the clearest statement of what actually saves you comes from a player mid-chase: “the only way we can outrun the killer is if we sprint and slide.”
