Red Dead Redemption 2: Ranking The Van Der Linde Gang From Worst To First

The Red Dead Redemption franchise introduced the world to the Van Der Linde gang. In the first game forums they were set up as the mysterious life John Marston lived before wanting to change his life for the better.

In the follow-up prequel title, players come to learn about the gang from inside and become familiar with the members and the inner workings of the crew as a whole. The gang is large but there's a handful of interesting and important members. Let's now rank the 10 most prominent members of the Van Der Linde gang from Red Dead Redemption 2 .

10 Micah Bell

If this list was comprised of every single member Micah Bell would easily come in the last place among the group. Though plenty of the other members were selfish or just jerks in general, Micah was working to actively cause drama.

Him being in Dutch Van Der Linde's ear for most of the game led to the many mistakes and mishaps the gang experienced along the way. Micah Bell wasn't looking out for anyone but himself and was willing to let others die just so he could get his. The rat of the Van Der Linde gang belongs at the bottom of every list.

9 Dutch Van Der Linde

Dutch Van Der Linde was, of course, the leader and founder of the Van Der Linde gang. In it's earlier years the gang provided an outlet and way of life for kids and young adults who didn't have anywhere to turn to. Dutch was always charismatic and could light up a crowd, but something in him changed.

Whether it was the head injury in Saint Denis, www.Gamehubfans.com or he simply feared the inevitable change ahead of him, Dutch quickly changed from doing what was best for the gang into doing what was best for Dutch.

8 Bill Williamson

You have to be unlikable in a Western for your most defining character trait to be the silhouette of your cowboy hat. Bill Williamson was known for having one side of his hat up and pressed against the center. He was also known for being a real big jerk.

The problem with Bill is that because Dutch helped give his life meaning and purpose he's loyal to him to a fault. Even when it's clear as day that Dutch and Micah are steering things in the wrong direction, Bill never serves any push back.

7 Javier Escuella

Javier Escuella experiences a big change during the events of the second game community despite starting as a likable and trustworthy member of the Van Der Linde gang. He looks up to Dutch quite a bit, just like his closest friend on the gang, Bill Williamson.

Once Dutch began to lose his mind, Javier seemed to become ultra-defensive of the leader in a weird state of denial. He looked up to and believed in Dutch so much, that the drastic change in Dutch shook Javier to his core as his ideal leader crumbled to insanity.

6 Hosea Matthews

Hosea Matthews was the oldest and most respected member of the Van Der Linde gang. Alongside being Dutch's right-hand man and confidant, Hosea was easily the most intelligent person in the gang as well. He had a preference for non-violence, but as Dutch began to fall off the wagon, their ideals began to clash.
