This ability started in red with Keldon Warlord in Alpha. R&D later moved it into green, as green is the creature color.

The ability is still done a little in green, but it's primary in white these days. The ability also dropped from Rare to Common for the vanilla version, though the ability overall tends to be supplemented with another to push it to uncommon.
