Read rules for Oath of Druids
At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player chooses target player who controls more creatures than they do and is their opponent. The first player may reveal cards from the top of their library until they reveal a creature card. If the first player does, that player puts that card onto the battlefield and all other cards revealed this way into their graveyard.

I was checking out some cards on Gatherer, and surprised to see this ruling for Wheel of Sun and Moon:

"if multiple cards would be put into the enchanted player's graveyard at the same time (due to Millstone, for example), they are instead all revealed and put on the bottom of the enchanted player's library at the same time. That player chooses what order to put them in. The order is not revealed to the other players."

So, therefore if the entire deck is put into the library at the same time, then you could arrange your deck however you wanted to, and the best part was you didn't have to show the other players. If you play Oath of Druids in a deck with no creatures then you can order your deck however you want it when you activate Oath's ability.

Thankfully GW houses the Planeswalkers that can give you creatures without creature cards (Elspeth, Garruk, Gideon) so this could be done pretty well I think. And stacked on your fourth turn before you draw too.

Wow, yea it is.  I think it would work better for an Eldrazi style deck and stupid cheap! 

I know someone has answered this before, but I'm guessing the card keeps looking until it finds no more cards in your library and then just gives up, right? 

That ruling makes complete sense to me in all but one point.  The idea that you can put them back in your library in any order you like.  I think the cards need to be put back into the library in the same order they went into the graveyard. 

Regardless of how the rule would be called, it's a nasty combo, just be careful about your opponent's Eldrazi or Blightsteel Collossus deck, lol.

If you had a card in play that killed any creature your opponent put out then it would be perfect.

Kismet would be great too. Try to find ways to restrict your opponent.
