Ask and follow up in Explore
In this tutorial, you will ask Scout a question about the matches it has recorded, read the evidence and caveats, and continue the same conversation with a follow-up. You do not need to administer a Discord server.
You need a Discord account that belongs to a server where Scout is installed and Explore is enabled.
1. Open Explore
Section titled “1. Open Explore”Open Scout Explore and sign in with Discord. Scout returns you to Explore after sign-in.
The first screen explains that Explore searches Scout’s combined recorded corpus. It does not search every League match or limit the question to one Discord server.
2. Start with a suggested question
Section titled “2. Start with a suggested question”Choose a starter such as Which champions have the highest win rate? Choosing a starter submits that question immediately. To change the wording first, type your own question in the composer and then send it.
While Scout works, the conversation shows the query and analysis activity. Leave the page open until the answer finishes.
3. Read the result as recorded evidence
Section titled “3. Read the result as recorded evidence”Start with the answer, then check:
- the number of recorded games behind each result;
- any low-sample or coverage caveat;
- the stated queue and time window; and
- the reminder that Scout’s corpus is not the full League ladder.
You now have an answer tied to the data Scout had recorded when the turn ran.
4. Ask a follow-up
Section titled “4. Ask a follow-up”Use one of Scout’s suggested follow-ups, or ask your own. For example:
Which champions lead in ranked solo only?
The follow-up stays in the same conversation, so Scout can refine the earlier question instead of starting over. Compare the queue-specific answer with the all-queue result.
5. Reopen the conversation
Section titled “5. Reopen the conversation”Return to Explore later and choose the conversation from your history. Your questions, answers, caveats, and branches remain together.
If you choose to share a conversation, Scout creates a frozen view of the currently shared branch. Later follow-ups do not silently change what the link shows.
You have completed an Explore conversation: one question, one evidence-aware answer, and one useful refinement.
Set something up from the conversation
Section titled “Set something up from the conversation”Where your server has this enabled, Explore can also prepare a scheduled report, a tracked player, or a competition from the conversation you are already having, instead of sending you to a form.
Ask for it in ordinary language—for example, “save this as a weekly report in the #general channel.” Scout confirms the details it is missing, then shows a confirmation card summarising exactly what it would create.
Nothing exists until you press Confirm. Scout re-checks your permissions in that server at that moment, so a card prepared before your access changed still cannot create anything you are no longer allowed to create. The card is single-use and expires after ten minutes; when it expires, ask again to prepare a fresh one.
The card appears only for you, in your own conversation. Sharing or publishing the conversation shows the question and answer without it, so nobody else is offered a confirmation they cannot complete.
