Upcoming addon buff for Pyramid Head (The Executioner) is not enough

I am a Pyramid Head main. I've been playing him since his release and have never gotten bored of him. I love his range attack, I've gotten some very nutty shots with his shockwave that are nothing but satisfying when they land. I love my boy.... HOWEVER, his addons are a problem. Like what are his addons even? Everything, apart from his range increase addons, is absolutely worthless. Being undetectable on your trail makes no sense because the only time you're going to be on your trail are at loops and even then Survivors, if they are good, are just going to avoid his trails by going to another loop that has no trails. Seal of Metatron is also bad because, again, good Survivors are just going to avoid being tormented so the amount of use you'll get out of the addon is super small. These are both Ultra Rare addons too, they are suppose to be strong but they aren't. Even then common addons are better then the Ultra Rare addons. The Very rare addons are just as bad, because all of them require Survivors to be Tormented. As I've stated before, good Survivors will avoid the trails like the plague because being Tormented and being sent to a cage is very bad for Survivors. Any perk or basekit hook mechanic like BT does not work for cages, so it's always the Survivors best interest to avoid the trails. Of course sometimes it can't be helped, and sometimes Survivors just don't care about the Torment. But those situations are rare, so commonly good Survivors will avoid the trails. I'm glad Scarlet Egg is getting a buff, but it's still not going to do anything because it requires being Tormented. Pyramid Head, statistically, has the worse range of addons at his disposal. His only good addons are the ones that increase his range, 3 addons out of the 20 are actually useful. Please do an addon pass for Pyramid Head at some point. I don't fully care if the addons are good, I just want him to have useful addons. Even some meme addons would be cool because at least you're using them just for fun. I beg 🙏

    A lot of killers need add-on passes, but Pyramid Head is definitely near the top of that list if not #1. When I look at his add-ons, all I can think is, "none of these do anything fun." He has three mechanics to work with: Rites of Judgment ranged attack, the trails he leaves, and the Tormented status effect. Surely BHVR can think of fun things to do with all three of these.
