Rulings
2008-10-01
Shyft’s ability won’t let you make it colorless. Colorless is not a color.
2008-10-01
The ability’s effect has no duration. Shyft will remain the chosen color or colors until the game ends, it leaves the battlefield, or some other effect (such as the next time its ability resolves) changes its colors.
