(Important) Pyramid head's main power has been bugged/shadownerfed since Pinhead patch or before!
I don't remember the exact patch, but I think this was around Pinhead's patch or before, because there was NO MENTION in the patch notes, I searched all the previous patch notes, and the last one I found was on patch 5.3.0 where they just fixed the wrong sfx of the power when it was ALREADY shadownerfed/bugged. The nerf/bug happened much before, without any mention as I said.
After Pyramid head's release, his power was changed to have a shorter m2 cooldown, from 2,75 seconds to 2,25 seconds, but a 1 second cooldown when cancelling a fully charged power.
After that, Pyramid's power still was bugged and you could abuse a trick to make his charging animation and sound completely unpredictable and with almost no reaction time.
They fixed the bug, but his power now ALWAYS has a 1 second cooldown even when the power is not fully charged. So if you just tap m2 you have a 1 second cooldown and slow down.
There was no mention in that patch notes, just that the bug was fixed, and Pyramid's power just got nerfed, and we don't know if it's a bug or a feature.
I wanted to respond to @Peanits or @MandyTalk under a recent thread where a user made them notice that the Wraith's Shadow Dance add-on was shadow nerfed, but I preferred doing a different thread. I just wanted to say that this is quite a big change not being able to fake your power anymore, and having it changed with no warning or feedback just to quickly fix an animation + sound bug seems lazy and unfair in my opinion.
I should have reported this bug a long time ago, I apologise, at the time I just accepted the shadow nerf/bug without saying nothing, I don't know if someone else has reported the same issue.
Please if anyone other than me remembers say something, a thing like this would immediately get noticed if it was another killer like Blight or Huntress.

What probably happened is that because there was a bug with the animation if you charged your power multiple times, so to fix the problem they straight up did the lazy solution and now you always have a 1 second cooldown. No mention in the patch notes, nothing. Just a shadownerf, or a bug if not.
