Community summaries describe it covering throws while scrambling or on the run, which normally carry an accuracy penalty — not just standard throws from a set pocket. Whether it specifically beats pressure penalties as well is not independently confirmed, so treat that extension as likely rather than settled.
The historical activation pattern is consecutive completions without an incompletion in between, which reinforces a good drive rather than bailing out a cold one.
Forum polling repeatedly puts these two ahead of the rest. A common scrambler build pairs Freight Train, Gambit and Dots together, using Dots to offset the accuracy hit that scrambling normally costs.
A MUT.GG thread asking which Deadeye combination replicates its effect gets genuinely different answers from experienced posters — do not treat any single stack recommendation as the definitive answer.
These abilities modify exactly the same 5 gameplay effects as Dots — not a similar set, the same one. What separates them is the situation each one's own description names.
