[EDH/COMMANDER] Oloro control/lifegain deck

What do you think? I've been working on it for quite some time now and it's pretty funny to play. How can I make it more competitive? I don't want stax cards such as winter orb or armageddon because it would make the play pretty boring

I decided to change something in my deck cause I didn't like how it worked yesterday night. I wasn't drawing helpful cards and I didn't do much in the end. I tried to make it more aggressive by taking out some mellow cards in exchange for something else.

- Vizkopa guildmage is out because it asks me to spend 3 mana to activate the ability that matters in my deck and it's definitely too much mana
- Dawn of hope is out for the same reason
- Lightning greaves is out because, while it's true that I'd like to protect my creatures with shroud, it's also true that I only play 7 creatures and it's not worth it really. I'll just end up drawing it with only oloro to protect and it's not like having oloro on the battlefield gives me that much advantage to justify the presence of lightning greaves in the deck
- Replenish is out because, while I play 21 enchantments, I don't base myself on enchantments that much. It would make sense if I had at least 30 enchantments, but I don't

+ Bitter ordeal is in because it gives me the chance to take win conditions out of my opponent's deck and it's a big advantage. I was thinking about Sadistic sacrament in its place but I'm dubious about the 3 black mana cost since I play 3 colors
+ Etherwrought page is in because it's an upkeep play that works well with paradox haze and oloro. I can also choose which effect to activate every upkeep
+ Ward of bones is in because it stops my opponents from playing creatures and that's a BIG advantage. The same also works for enchantments and artifacts but I play a lot of them so it's not that effective
+ Sorin grim nemesis is in because it gives me the chance to draw and damage my opponents at the same time. The other 2 effects are really powerful too
