I made a new G/W deck for my friend, and people say it's pretty good, but we don't have a lot of people to test it against, so I'm asking you people to help out. There aren't any control decks in our meta, but that doesn't mean I don't want control matchups, because I'll need a sideboard for him. Thanks in advance, and tell me how the game goes
Hmm... Needs A Cool Name... Whatever

I playtested your deck versus my UWR control deck here. I played a game and I managed to win pretty decisivesly.
game opened with a birds and then a turn 2 explore that I countered.
Then a hydra I killed
Then two of those 5 mana things that get counters when damaged. I let them resolve and never blocked or burned them so I took a measly 2 a turn.
In all this time I ramped up taking some fetch damage a restoration angel was the biggest pain for the deck as you couldn't kill it and many beatings later you died. The descisive play was when an elesh norn resolved hit me for 6 but I untapped and attacked for two with cryptic mana up and then a countered hydra and bounced elesh later I untapped to play vendilion clique cycling the norn and attacked for lethal.
In all its ok but you need interaction to make it somehwhat viable as most decks unopposed would just overhwelm you where as control decks like that one will set up a clock and just tempo the game to a win.
