tips for playing as the Pyramid Head
Purchased this killer a while ago, first five games against swf - frustrating. Any basic tips? Recommended perks? And is better to hook or send to cage?

3. Hold m2 to dissuade survivors from optimal paths and then m1 them.
4. If they are unhooking in front of you you can hit them both with m2 if you time it right

12 games later... Damn, he has no map pressure and his short-ranged attack is so easy to dodge :/

I'm All Ears is god-tier on him due to helping aim your M2 hits when they vault through a window or pallet.

Save The Best for Last is highly recommended as well thanks to M2 hits not counting as basic attacks.

General tactics is that you put trails where you patrol. Whenever you're in chase you use your M2 for only 2 things normally: 1) when they're about to vault a pallet or window since their movement is now predictable. 2) To bait them into not going to a pallet or window since they'll move to the side then and you can cancel your M2 to move in for a quick M1.

Don't listen to this guy, he just wants you to get STBFL because it's a Myers perk. Don't trust his name. /s

just start using your power when someone is near a pallet / window and if they vault or drop it use your attack to hit them while they are dropping it or vaulting, if they fake it cancel out of your power and m1 them

2. Only use cage to execute, get in another chase immediatly, or if you suspect they have DS.
3. Hold m2 to dissuade survivors from optimal paths and then m1 them.
