My favorite of them all is always Liara she's been number one for me forever and will continue to be. Garrus & Tali are strong seconds though I like them a lot too. Wrex is awesome but his status is not on the same level as the previous mentioned because his personality is too grumpy and sometimes bigoted. He would be like in the 10th place in top 10 squad members if he even makes it there. He reminds me of my grandfather a lot. I really didn't like when Ashley and Wrex had temper tantrums or said something completely egoistic. Not to mention a lot of Ashley's traits were extremely questionable. She's very antagonistic in Mass Effect 3 and sides with Udina of all people and then tells Shepard to go to hell if Shepard fails to convince her to stand down. At least Kaidan dies with honor, integrity and has nice last words if Shepard is forced to put him down. Kaidan doesn't use his last moment alive to spite and angrily confront Shepard out of pure jealousy and hatred unlike some.
@@Sigurjon96 I haven't played through 3 with Ash alive, so I can't comment on her. I do love Wrex, though. I don't think he's any more bigoted than Garrus (who is my favorite but definitely says questionable things in ME1 at least).

Nah. Who do you get into a long distance sniping match with? Versus whose detractors you physically intimidate by literally butting heads? (Also idk why but until I level up enough Garrus is a flipping glass cannon. He is ALWAYS the first to go down in early fights. )
Ironically enough I'm pretty sure Garrus is actually on the younger side of Shep's squad mates. He's never given an official age, but Patrick Weekes has said he's ~3-4 years younger than Shepard (who is 29 in ME1 before Lazarus makes the age stuff weird) and that's enough to put him on the younger half at least, tho specifics are hard with a lot of characters' ages being vague
@@211Shinobu Yeah he's definitely older than Tali, Grunt, Ash (25 in ME1), and Jack who was taken by Cerberus as an infant in the mid-2160's, probably the youngest of all of them, excluding Grunt. Of the non-asari/krogan, Miranda and Thane are both canonically well into their 30's by ME2, Mordin being old for a salarian probably places him there too (since they rarely make it to 40) and Zaeed is at least in his late 40s based on him being kicked out of the Suns 2 decades before ME2. Then ofc there's Wrex, Liara, Samara/Morinth, and Javik who are basically older than every non-Asari or Turian. For the more vague ages, Kaidan and Jacob can either be Garrus' age or a year older or younger respectively depending on if you think he's 3 or 4 years younger than Shep. Vega probably fits there too but both he and Kasumi's lore give next to nothing to go off of. The AI are uh...complicated lol. EDI's kind of like Grunt given she was 'born' from the AI on Luna in ME1 while Shep was being rebuilt, meanwhile some platforms that make up Legion have existed since the Quarians first created the geth.

Put these two on your squad and you barely have to do anything! Two best warriors in the galaxy! They're major yet friendly rivals but they round out a near perfect fireteam. I don't like what they did with Wrex in the Armax Arsenal Arena in the Citadel DLC though. They made him use a pistol in lieu of an assault rifle which is just silly. It's alright though. Shotguns suit him best and he still has that.

I did see a video of someone killing 5 Cerberus troops (including cartwheeling phantoms) with one shot in MP. I'm sure Garrus could do it -- no heart attack required.
The dialogue in this game is genuinely AMAZING, literally taking notes. The chemistry
Good characters interacting with each other -- pure joy.
On my first mass effect 1 play through wrex and garrus were the only squad mates i took with me, their banter meant everything to me
Best bros!
I wish we could get an animated mass effect series so the whole crew can go on missions together and have fun dialogue
That's brilliant dude
With Hollywood as it is right now, probably not the best time. I’m willing to wait tho, I’d watch it
If you get a chance, watch Mass Effect: Paragon Lost. It’s an animated movie where James has to fight the Collectors during ME2
@@clongshanks5206that's also why I'm afraid of the new Mass Effect game
Might become a mess like the other "modern audience" games🤮
Wrex really was the best thing for the Krogan.
Grunt doesn't hurt either.
@@JnEricsonx Always a pleasure having a krogan on the team!
@@211Shinobu When I met Steve Blum the second time, he did the Grunt laugh for a few moments. I was so glad he didn't die in 3, I was stressed till he shows up bloody and hungry.
@@JnEricsonx I cried and then laughed through my tears when he showed up at the end!
Well yeah. Wrex is basically Krogan equivalent of Gandhi.
Seeing James at the end with those two bantering would have been a treat LMAO... James really liked the Krogan and Wrex was the best example for that!
James is cool. He wants to try fighting Wrex mano a mano!
2:28 I find it hilarious that the Salarian glares at Garrus when he snarks off about Vorcha eating habits.
"Dude, seriously? You're siding with the KROGAN?"
To Win a Battle, bring a Krogan. To win a War, Bring a Turian. To Save the Galaxy, Bring *Both* .
I wanted to but I didn't have my krogan family in ME3...
My fave super space best friends. Besides Chief and Arby
I first read that as "Space Beast Friends!"
Garrus and Wrex: two video gane characters written so well, I actually wanted to sit down to a beer with both of them in real life.
Same, my friend!
Garrus and a random turian are pulling Wrex from a horde of husks.
-what are you doing?! what are you doing?! stop it! ahh! aaahhhhhhhhh!
Put these two on your squad and you barely have to do anything! Two best warriors in the galaxy! They're major yet friendly rivals but they round out a near perfect fireteam. I don't like what they did with Wrex in the Armax Arsenal Arena in the Citadel DLC though. They made him use a pistol in lieu of an assault rifle which is just silly. It's alright though. Shotguns suit him best and he still has that.
The way I played ME1 it rarely made sense to have anyone else but these two. Wrex in front, Garrus in the rear, what more do you need?
@@PorusHorus An Asari with singularity?
@@swanky2202 I had the engineer rockets that bent around corners, which usually did the trick
@@swanky2202 That's true. I did enjoy the singularity usage when there was a swarm of a ton of husks.
@PorusHorus Ashley and Wrex were the only ones who didn't fold like wet tissue paper.
ill always stand by my opinion that garrus, wrex, and broshep would make for the best 3way bromance
No argument here!
Wrex “never though I’d die fighting side by side with a Turian”
Garrus “how about side by side with a friend”
Aye. I can do that.
Wrexes smartest line is
"Only an idiots wants combat with a stealth ship"
Its so true😂😂😂
Also wrex and garrus at the salarians base is nigh peak of this game
I have no frame of reference but I'll take your word for it!
Well, Wrex has been around since somewhere around 15th century? Plenty of time to learn the art of war.
i love them so much 😭😭😭😭
This is the correct answer!
It is a literal crime that we didn't get wrex as a companion in ME3
You briefly get him during the Citadel DLC for a bit.
He’s kinda busy organizing the krogan. Things would fall apart without him there to keep order.
Garrus and Wrex have explored eachothers bodies and you cannot change my mind
Just for that is what a love mass effect, every character have unique conversations 😊
Garrus definitely got the Normandy fight he wished for in me2
True! They didn't get to use the stealth, though.
wrex 'ive always wanted to have a firefight on the normandy cic deck' afraid of a little space combat?
Okay how fkn adorable is that?! I need to play rverything again with those 2 as my only squad?! I usually used Wrex and Tali or Garrus and Tali
2:27 apparently Garrus knew how to follow that up lmao
I love that he played along!
The Salarian soldier looked SO offended
IDK why but the Salarian glaring after Garrus said Vorcha like grilled Salarian liver just freaking killed me
To think I was gonna blast Wrex in the skull in ME1 because he wouldn't chill out. I'm so glad I didn't.
You were the one who dodged a bullet there!
Shepard staying (mostly) silent through all of this makes me think she's just reaching her limit with these two lovable goofballs.
"Don't get involved... don't get involved..."
No humans are worthing bringing as squadmate in mass effect
& These two are the reason why 😂
I'm trying to bring Kasumi to more things and she's pretty cool. But if I had the option of Wrex in ME2 I'd take him everywhere.
Wrex and Ashley are only ones not to fold as paper.
But if I can't take Wrex, I take Garrus.
*after a battle with the Reapers*
Garrus: Final count: 42.
Wrex, sitting on a dead body: 42? That’s not bad for a bird faced Turian cop. I myself am sitting pretty on 43.
*Garrus frowns (can Turians frown?) and shoots at the body Wrex is sitting on*
Garrus: 43.
Wrex: He was already dead.
Garrus: He was twitching.
Wrex: He was twitching because he’s got my omni-tool IMBEDDED IN HIS NERVOUS SYSTEM!
*Wrex wiggles the omni-tool’s handle, causing the husk to twitch*
The best trio
Shep is Aragorn.
God I love these two.
Actually, surprisingly enough the Chemistry between Drack and Vetra is arguably even better in Andromeda - some of their dialogue while driving around in the rover is hilarious (and way better than most the campaign lol)
Drack is Vetra's dad.I can't remember what he said when Vetra and Ryder got together, but it was cute. The Nomad banter was the best.
Wrex: That still only counts as one!!!
Damn I forgot how good the character banter that took place here. So much better writing and acting from a series over 15 years old now. Take some fucking notes Bethesda
Omg how did I never ser that comparison
There's a reason why the other one wears red and the other blue. They're the primary squadmates.
Who's the yellow ranger? Tali in Liberator armor?
I always get the whole roster
Love this squad.
What a nice bromance.
Right? Frenemies -> brothers.
@@211Shinobu People which are close argue a lot. A natural thing.
Wrex: I prefer my salarian liver served raw.
Garrus: I hear the Vorcha prefer it grilled.
This is peak friendship in my eyes.
“Don’t have a panic attack, I’ll protect you” 😂😂😂
The cute part is he really will protect Garrus!
These two were the best sidekicks in the game, besides Liara if you romanced her
😂🤣 after playing the game, watching the movies again can't unsee these two now as legolas and gimli
I'm sorry and you're welcome?
@@211Shinobu Not a bad thing at all, I was laughing so much after seeing this. Great similarities.
@@stevenk7904 Frenemies turned true friends.
How can you not love this franchise !? I really hope the next Mass Effect steps up its game to surprise use even more !
You and me both!
These two were my go to every mission
Garrus and Liara are a good team, too!
I never thought of them like Lego Las and gmili, now I cannot unsee it. It made the game much better
Aw, thanks! I'm glad you like the concept!
Gamings best comedy duo
Agreed!
god I fucking love these guys... man, wtf happened bioware
That is probably in the top 5 for most accurate descriptions for Garrus and Wrex's friendship.
Thanks! I'd love to hear the others!
Wrex: "I appreciate that, Liara. I wouldn't want anyone else along for the ride."
Garrus: *ahem*
Wrex: *stares at Garrus* "I suppose I can make room for you too, Garrus"
Wrex likes Tali and Liara like they're his kids. Garrus is his annoying little brother.
I love these two.
They're a Shepard's best bros. (Or boyfriend and bro, in my Shepard's case.)
Good times indeed, Wrex.
*Garrus:* Genicide is one of the reasons we fought the Kroga... Uh.
*Wrex:* You wanna talk about genicide Vakarian? I'll take you to a krogan obstetrician's office.
3:00 the poor salarian guard be like "waht the fuck is going on? Are they gonna kill each other or are they flirting?!"
I think he's more outraged that no one is telling the krogan he can't eat Salarian livers.
And those one liners are the reason we keep replaying this game
You know it!
Shepard and the Reapers are mortal enemies, like Turians and Krogans, or Salarians and Krogans, or Krogans and other Krogans. Damn Krogans, they ruined Tuchanka!"
But Turians and Salarians and Krogan can make peace with the Krogan. Can Shepard make peace with the Reapers?
I love these two lmao
And well you should!
Yeah best bros got best banters
Perfect title for a video
Thank you! 💙💙
We better get more of these two in 4!
I don't know if it will happen, but I wouldn't say no!
Man I swear mass effect got one of the best brotherhoods on the Normandy
I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite found family on the Citadel.
They are the best bros... I always have them with me in my Playthoruhg... burning and roasting each other
So we gave a human who is very adept at solving problems with violence a gun nut turian with a knack for making things go boom and one of the baddest krogan battle master that enjoys destruction the mission to save the galaxy.
The council:What have we unleashed?
Desperate times, my friend.
@@211Shinobu best team for the job in these desperate times
You know it! @@darkcommando3
Garrus saying he doesn’t regret the genophage is why I don’t run him as a companion
Fair. I take him to rescue Eve and cure the Genophage to give him a character arc.
@ 3:14 hey!!!!!!! that Shepard's line 😁😆
It's for all of us. Mass Effect really was the best.
Hahaha golden! Love this game, full of character💫
Wrex is awesome.
