Glittering Wish

Glittering Wish: The older wish cards were incredably powerful in the old extended, and they were limited to a particular kind of card (instant, creature, or sorcery). Glittering Wish has access to all three and more.

What are some playable Glittering Wish targets in Extended (both proactive and reactive cards)?
Keep in mind that decks running Green, combined with the duels and fetchs this format has, have the ability to run pretty much any color needed.

Well, I was asking because I was trying to figure out a sideboard for this (bad) deck:

// Lands
4 [LRW] Forest (1)
4 [RAV] Temple Garden
4 [ON] Windswept Heath
1 [OD] Plains (4)
3 [FUT] Horizon Canopy
3 [ON] Wooded Foothills
2 [RAV] Overgrown Tomb

// Creatures
4 [A] Birds of Paradise
4 [4E] Llanowar Elves
4 [MR] Troll Ascetic
4 [SHM] Kitchen Finks
4 [FUT] Tarmogoyf
3 [MOR] Chameleon Colossus

// Spells
1 [MR] Chrome Mox
3 [LRW] Oblivion Ring
4 [FUT] Glittering Wish
3 [BOK] Umezawa's Jitte
2 [DS] Sword of Light and Shadow
3 [RAV] Putrefy

Basicly, I was trying to have answers for a lot of the popular decks:
-Finks for Zoo
-Troll for Something Level Blue.

I don't know, it's a bad deck, but, I was just really looking for options on what I could have in a sideboard to give me answers to decks that see a lot of play.

I hate to be a dickhead, but why don't you just look through apprentice on your own and look through gold cards: that is how tech is found.

Too bad you can't take death grasp anymore. That card from the wishboard won me soo many long games in the old extended.

I still like Teneb as a nice fatty in case you have the mana for him.

Jund Charm, if you meet the mana requirements, is nice tech.
