I think Pikemen are pretty decent now, just slash behind a 2h infantry slasher since they don't get back-reflected anymore.
If you aim carefully you can also throw slighty above the shoulders of your shield wall and hit nords in front, since thrown weapons fall faster than arrows/bolts.
Only thing I'd change is exchange of athletics for power strike or melee proficiency or more armor, and maybe give them the same no back-reflection treatment as infantry.
Somewhat offtopic:
Going from singleplayer item menu, Dragon Halberd seems to be missing bonus against shields, though I think only Ryuu has one so far.
Same goes for the Twigs of Yggdrasil.
