Control’s combat mechanics are made specifically so that enemies hit you less the faster you’re moving. So picking up momentum and keeping it as much as you can is a solid strategy. Sometimes I simply run around in circles when low on health, trying to get some easy kill or find more health somewere. It works surprisingly well.

Also, Throw is OP in general. A little trick I only recently learned myself: You can pick up something from behind an enemy and have it hit them as it floats towards you.

Have fun! :)
