Once an ability that causes a creature to explore begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it's done. Notably, opponents can't try to remove the exploring creature after you reveal a nonland card but before it receives a counter.

River Herald Scout
Creature — Merfolk Scout
"Don't worry, little swimmers. I'm here for the ruins, not you."
Wyjaśnienie po polsku
Rzeczny Herold Zwiadowca (River Herald Scout)
Stwór — Merek Zwiadowca
Jak działa karta?
Ten stwór eksploruje przy wejściu na pole bitwy. Jeśli odkryje ląd, dostaje go do ręki. W przeciwnym razie zyskuje znacznik +1/+1.
Kiedy Rzeczownik rzeki wejdzie na pole bitwy, odkrywa wierzchnią kartę biblioteki. Jeśli to ląd, umieszcza go w ręce. W przeciwnym razie dodaje znacznik +1/+1 i decyduje, czy karta ma zostać zwrócona na wierzch biblioteki, czy przejść do cmentarza. Eksploracja może być wykonywana przez nie-stworów, jeśli tylko są one permanentami. Jeśli nie ma żadnej karty do odkrycia (np. biblioteka jest pusta), stwór zyskuje znacznik +1/+1.
Ważne interakcje
- Eksploracja działa nawet jeśli stwór opuści pole bitwy przed jej ukończeniem.
- Kiedy stwór eksploruje, nie można go usunąć z pola bitwy po odkryciu karty, ale przed dodaniem znacznika.
- Jeśli karta zostaje odrzucona z biblioteki, stwór nadal może zyskać znacznik +1/+1.
Częste pomyłki
- Mylenie eksploracji z poświęceniem lub odrzuceniem karty.
- Zakładanie, że eksploracja musi być wykonywana przez stwora, który jest wciąż na polu bitwy.
Przykład
Na przykład, jeśli Rzeczownik rzeki wejdzie na pole bitwy i odkryje ląd, dostaje go do ręki. Jeśli odkryje kartę nie-lądową, zyskuje znacznik +1/+1 i karta wraca na wierzch biblioteki.

If a resolving spell or ability instructs a specific creature to explore but that creature has left the battlefield, the creature still explores. If you reveal a nonland card this way, you won't put a +1/+1 counter on anything, but you may put the revealed card into your graveyard. Effects that trigger "whenever a creature explores" trigger as appropriate.
If no card is revealed, most likely because that player's library is empty, the exploring creature receives a +1/+1 counter.
In some unusual cases, noncreature permanents may explore. For example, if the creature card returned by Defossilize is somehow not a creature once it's on the battlefield, it can still explore. You'll take all the same actions, and you may end up putting a +1/+1 counter on the permanent. (Note that some effects target a creature, and those effects would still require a legal target to have it explore.)
If an ability instructs a creature to explore, its controller reveals the top card of their library. If it's a land card, they'll put it into their hand. Otherwise, they'll put a +1/+1 counter on that creature, then choose to either leave that card on top of their library or put it into their graveyard.
Some spells or abilities might cause a creature to explore multiple times in a row. If you reveal a nonland card when a creature explores and leave it on top of your library, then the creature explores again immediately afterwards, you'll reveal the same card again.
