I have also been playing around with Control Paladin but never had much ladder success beyond ranks 5-4 with it. It could have been that the meta was not right for it but perhaps now it could find some success.
I think the primary building strategy I used was grouping cards into packages and then deciding which packages to include. You have the N'Zoth Package (N'zoth the Corrupter, Tirion Fordring, Cairne Bloodhoof, Plated Beetle, Loot Hoarder, Mistress of Mixtures), the Curator Package (The Curator, Primordial Drake//Bone Drake, Hydrologist, Plated Beetle//Stampeding Kodo), the AoE Package (Equality, Consecration, Wild Pyromancer, Primordial Drake), the Single-Target-Removal Package (Aldor Peacekeeper//Humility, Scorp-o-matic//Stampeding Kodo), the OTK Package (Uther of the Ebon Blade, Auctionmaster Beardo, Burgly Bully, Hydrologist, Humility//Blessing of Wisdom), along with other packages. (Notice that there is a lot of overlap within the packages, so you can actually form pretty interesting synergies between different packages)
The difficult part is deciding which packages are best for the current meta, as well as deciding which weapons to use, which tech cards to include, etc.

Any opinions on what the best ones are?
