In your upkeep, lets ability of Oath of Scholars start first, and then Bottled Cloister.

Actually you want cloister to go on the stack first so that it will resolve last!

This is a great combo, but it's less for a control deck and more for a combo deck. The downfall from Cloister is that you won't have a hand during your opponents turns so it makes proper control much harder.

I wonder if control could pull it off by adding something "in play" to remove the idea of needing the hand.
