Group Hug Decks help out one or more other players and use their successes to win.

Parasite decks (AKA Reverse Group Hug Decks) harm one specific player and leech off of them to win in the stead of them.

The cards in the deck can only do one of the following effects.1) Use other people's hands, decks, board, etc.2) Controlled chaos - the effects of a chaos deck (unexpected board clears, random switching or permenants, etc.) but for only one player (single target player).3) Disrupt specific win cons or whatever (control -ish).4) Basically f*** up one player and leech off of them.

Your goal is not to win with your own win conditions, but to "puppet" one specific enemy in a multiplayer game and to use their deck and stuff, while controlling what they can do with control cards. Do this only in the mid-to-late game, keeping quieter and ramping with green cards in the earlier.

After you copy or steal something powerful (like their commander or powerful win con), you drain them for all they have and/or kill them quickly.

Your next move is to use the one player's win con(s) against other players. If they were killed or otherwise targeted too much, you repeat the previous process.

Leech, steal, consume. The essence of a Parasite Deck.

(Added green because ramp and Garruk, among others.)
