-
A monocolored card is exactly one of white, blue, black, red, or green and no other colors. A colorless card isn’t monocolored.
-
If you find only one card, you’ll shuffle it into your library and exile Emergent Ultimatum without casting anything.
-
If you wish to cast any exiled cards, you do so as part of the resolution of Emergent Ultimatum. You can’t wait to cast them later. Timing permissions based on a card’s type are ignored.
-
Emergent Ultimatum is still on the stack while you cast the cards you found, so those spells could target it. However, once it’s exiled, it will no longer be a legal target.
-
