  I'll take the devil's advocate position in this thread. Under what circumstances would Champion of Light be used with flashbangs? The obvious answer is that a survivor would throw a pallet, wait for the killer's kick animation to start, and then drop the flashbang. The survivor runs away in a direction the killer can't see and the killer has a considerable slowdown for a short time.

  Who does this impact? Nurse wouldn't care, she'd just blink for distance. Blight wouldn't care, he'd just rush to catch back up. Spirit, Wesker, raging Oni, Billy, Singularity, Hag, and Twins all have movement abilities to close the distance. Artist and Huntress both have ranged abilities that let them disregard the movement penalty.

  You might notice that in that list, the killers that can just disregard Champion of Light+Flashbang are also the killers who are already the strongest.

  The only weak killers who can disregard this are Dredge and Freddy, while the most notable high tier killers who would be hampered by this are Plague and Pyramid Head.

  Is this compelling enough to decide that Flashbang shouldn't be able to combo with CoL? idk, that's an opinion-based question. I just wanted to put forward the observation that buffing CoL in this way might have unenjoyable side effects.

  “…Under what circumstances would Champion of Light be used with flashbangs?…”

  🙋‍♂️ I have an example of a very specific circumstance where the two used in tandem would save me grief:

  

  I would simply use a flashlight if I wasn’t completely incapable of successfully using a flashlight 😂
