The effect does not apply to monsters already in play. This is important since they are your main defense against the opponent's newly Speed Summoned monsters.
The Fleeting granted by Plataeu of Shades works similarly to a status effect. As such, transformations and Save Point will prevent the Fleeting.
Active Time prevents the undizzying element of Plateau of Shades, which in turn causes the Fleeting part of the ability to fail as well.
The Fleeting given by Plateau of Shades kills monsters after normal Draw phase abilities (such as mana generation) but not others (such as maintenance).
The Fleeting given by Plateau of Shades also ignores the normal immunity to destruction given by the Boss ability.
