I've been playing oath since late may (started vintage the beginning of this year) and griselbrand oath since June/July. Here is my most recent build of ritual oath. Overall it's really solid and I don't have a problem finding a way to win. That being said I still think there is room for improvement to make it even better. As an additional note my worst matchup is probably shops (at the last tournament I got locked out fast and couldn't really find an answer back).
Here's the list:
MAINDECK
2: tropical island
2: underground sea
4: Misty rainforest
4: Forbidden orchard
1: Island
1: Tolarian academy

4: Oath of Druids
1: Necropotence
1: Yawgmoth's bargain
5: Moxen
1: Black lotus
1: Sol ring
1: Mana crypt
4: Dark rituals
2: Preordain
4: Force of will
2: Misdirection
1: Ancestral recall
1: Time walk
2: JTMS
2: Tendrils of agony
1: Memory's journey
1: Brainstorm
1: Vampiric tutor
1: Demonic tutor
2: Thougthseize
1: Yawgmoth's will
2: Griselbrand
1: Mind's desire
2: Mental misstep
1: Lotus petal
1: Show and tell

SB
4: Leyline of the void
3: Nihil spellbomb
4: Nature's claim
2: Flusterstorm
1: Perish
1: Forest

I'm thinking of taking the forest from the board and putting it into the main deck and adding
A hurks into the board. Any thoughts on the list are  appreciated. Thanks guys

Personally, I feel like anything resembling shay's gb oath is one of the worst variants of oath of all time. This is coming from some one who's favorite cards are rit and oath. I'd ditch this plan and play control. Spell pierce has been doing a lot of work for me against shops.
If you really want to play rits and oath, I've had really good rests with Steve's burning log list after my initial skeptical testing.

Any card rich shay touches turns to gold. Any deck that man builds destroys whole villages. And I've had great succes at doing just that with help from griselbrand. Heck I've even lost friendships over how nutts this deck can get. So I have to disagree with your statement
