Which GTA Protagonist was the MOST EVIL? (Ranking GTA Characters) 

Gta online character 💀

Claude worked for the mafia, helped turn people into dog food & killed Asuka’s brother despite all the help he got from her. He betrayed everyone he worked with just to get revenge on Catalina and went to extreme lengths to do it, *all without saying a single word.* That’s COLD asf

6:12 ''I'm gonna give Tommy Vercetti an A'' *_Gives him a B💀_*

Then there's the Claude variant from GTA 2, who kidnapped a bus full of people, brought them to the mob and watched them being turned into human "chili dogs" to be selled all across the city. That's some S+ tier of evil right there.

How come Michael gets a B and Niko a C while Niko has done far worse than Michael? Also CJ, Claude and Tommy should easily get an A.

No one is gonna mention the fact that Trevor is a cannibal?

Claude and Toni are easy S tier. These guys have no boundaries when it comes to getting paid

personally i'd put Claude in thye S tier as he's basically GTA Michael Myers

Fun Fact: After the Mr. Philips cutscene if you shoot Johnny in the head you get a kill confirmation (a white flash), meaning he probably wasn't dead at all.

I wouldn’t really say Niko is “evil” but he goes to some extreme lengths to get by in a foreign country. The only people I think are TRULY evil without motive are Trevor, and The Mutes (GTAV Online + Claude). Characters who just kill and destroy for the fun of it without the desire for money. Obviously everyone is in it for the money but Trevor and the Mutes will do it for free if you ask them nice enough

Claude is an S/A tier.

TENPENNY: We have leverage against you for the murder of Officer Pendelbury. *CJ and Ryder proceed to commit treason when they break into a national guard base to steal weapons and kill soldiers.

Claude is s tier 💀

S: Claude, Toni, Trevor A: Tommy B: Michael, CJ C: Louis, Nico, Johnny D: Franklin, Victor E:

Toni is the most evil gta character for me. He basically bombed an entire district and committed mass murder. All that for just 5000 bucks. Dude is the very definition of evil. No one even comes close to toni cipriani

I’m sorry but this has to be one of the worst rankings I’ve seen . Michael is more evil than Niko? Are you kidding me. You have Michael in the same tier as CJ, Tommy and Claude. Those people have killed INNOCENT people. That alone makes them A tier

Poor Vic. He is the most nicest protagonist in GTA but unfortunately in VC the Rockstar change his appearance and altitude and he die for nothing. He failed to escape in drug world. RIP Vic Vance.

How the hell is Michael in the same tier as a guy who helps turn people into dog food and a guy who buried a innocent guy alive in cement and shit???

If Claude Speed was a hitman character he would allawys do silent assassin😂

Although all pratagonists are bad in general, the top 3 worst names compared to the others (in my opinion) are; Trevor, Claude, Tony. If we were to rank them. 1-Trevor: A deeply disturbed individual. He is often extremely angry, unsympathetic and wild. Even though Trevor is a terrible person, he is at least loyal to his friends, his mother, and a few other people. Moreover, it is implied that Trevor had a bad childhood. Maybe if he had had a good childhood, he wouldn't be such a person. 2- Toni Cipriani: Except for the side characters in the series (Eddie Low GTA 4), he is the man who committed the most brutal and inhumane crimes. Giovanni dismembers Casa with an ax and sells its meat. He is the definition of evil as he blows up Staunton Island and thousands of civilians. 3- Claude (the pure evil in my opinion): an unpredictable person who can betray his employer and those around him as a result of his interests. The beta version of GTA 3 makes it more violent. (darkel's terrorist themed missions). Even toni and trevor are loyal to at least some people. But Claude is literally just a malicious psychopath. Even though he is the worst in my opinion, Claude is someone who has been betrayed many times. Catalina, Salvatore's paranoia has made him untrustworthy.

Tony Cipriani is the very worst. Anyone who played LCS can agree. He killed a whole district (10.000 people) for like 5000 dollars lol

You literally described Claude as a cold blooded murder with no emotions and no loyalty who will literally do whatever he wants and betray whoever he wants aslong as hes benefitting from it, and put him in B? He deserved A atleast, but id put him in S

Claude is the most evil out of them with Toni being the second Luis being the least evil Huang would've been a good guy but he's the leader of the Triads in Liberty City Vic is a family man i truly wish to see Pete Vance

Putting michael above a literal war criminal is actually mental, ik you are sticking to the game, but like helping a domestic abuser toss their murdererd wife is abhorrent, hes easily on the same level as Trevor. If not worse because Trevor is mentally unstable.

"Yeah he committed war crimes human trafficking" *puts niko in c*

Tbh honest the evil people are the ones who is controlling the character like imagine killing a old lady and blowing up cars etc S tier 👀☕

Claude from GTA 3 is the most evil, because he has no morals whatsoever. He only cares about money and power. And he will kill anyone who crosses his path for no reason.

If these monsters existed in the real world, they would all automatically be in S tier, even people like Niko, Franklin, Luis and Vic.

Toni Cipriani explode the half of stauton island

Hey, I'm just glad Liberty City Stories is getting some recognition.

That thing CJ did with the concrete truck was diabolical.

Trevor said he loves torturing people, he definitely should be considered S tier evil.

How the hell is Claude not in S

Toni is the most evil, he literally blew up a whole neighbourhood😂😂

Nio being in C tier is crazyyy. Michael for instance is nothing compared to Niko

I know Victor Vance is not really an evil guy, he's mostly just a guy who has to put up with people's nonsense, but he has the coldest voice lines in the game. (pointing his gun at them) "This might sting a little." "Hey, dead man, what's up?" "Your biggest mistake? Being born."

lets give tommy A puts on B

I think the main reason Claude seems so evil to many, is that they never gave him voice. Imagine how much he would be protesting while committing all those terrible and evil deeds.

Tony Cipriani. He blew up an entire neighbourhood for $5,000.

6:14 Gives Tommy Vercetti an A, but puts him in the B row.

I’d put Niko a little lower considering that even though he does some really awful stuff and has committed war crimes, it’s obvious he really hates the fact that he did and deeply regrets it.

Cj was pretty chill until he got to Fierro and he just says “the sigma wolf in me has awoken” then his personality does a 180. Claude I’d rank S because there is likely nothing he would refuse to do, he’d blow not just Staunton but the entire city.

Toni blowing up the whole Fort Staunton was the worst

i like the part where tommy got an A rank

Fun fact: Claude’s last name is not speed, that’s the guy from gta 2, the one from gta 3 has no last name

Tommy also killed Mrs Dawson and Carl Pearson for no reason but money when working for mr black

No offense, I've seen a Russian guy doing a more detailed analysis using the RDR honor system.

Cj burried a foreman ALIVE and killed his coworkers just because her sister got catcalled💀

bro left the online character bc he knows it would already top the most evil character 💀

It's like Michael said to Franklin: "I've done alot of things I ain't proud of. I never claimed to be an angel. But [once] you meet Trevor, Franklin....you'll swear I am an angel." Michael was supposedly worse before he got married and got kids. Trevor said he got soft, less stones and more fat. And if you pick Ending A he was legitimately tired of Trevor the Psycho.

8:28 I love how the VCS theme plays while talking about TBOGT the theme actually fits in it!

Tommy is too high here. He's dangerous, not evil. Even his owm quote(s) calling himself psychotic aren't legitimate.

You forgot huang lee, i think we would be in D since he just killed people that were related to some mafia and did it with no hesitation (like how he did with his cousin)

Trevor is easily an S tier he’s Literally a cannibal 😂

Franklin is a good guy. The Assassinations:💀

Niko is at least a tier

How I see them (the GTA games I've played) Claude from GTA III and Tommy from Vice City were quasi evils.... Claude being too damn mysterious.. we cant judge his evilness but he could go any lengths to prove how much revenge he wants. Tommy is power hungry... He could do anything for power and to get the work done.. He killed many innocents just to prove to a biker gang.. but he also had a soft spot for Ernest Kelly (Printing Press guy) CJ was not evil at all.. yes he was brutal, he was indecisive at times but wasn't a blood thirsty demon.. he, most of the time, saw violence as the last resort (Remember killing Pulaski and stopping Sweet from Killing a dope head or better he saved madd Dogg from committing suicide) and that deconstruction part was actually CJ being indecisive.. Niko Bellic is someone who would shoot you in the head first than feel bad for your family.. he was just a broken man IMO Toni Cipriani was a kind of evil.. in his ways.. IMO he (after Luis and Franklin) is the protagonist who rarely loses his cool. He is just a man who never got the love and respect he deserved Johnny Klibetz was not evil at all.. he was just tired of all the bs and wanted an out. Luis Lopez just like Toni and Frank, is a loyal and Calm dude, but is reckless AF.. He is surrounded by some real loyal friends like Henrique, Armando, Yusuf Amir and his boss Toni.. I feel he is the chillest GTA Protagonist (Not evil at all) Franklin is kinda friendly dude you can easily talk to walking down the road, he wants to pursue his life as a criminal but not the one involved in petty crimes. He even became friendly to Jimmy who initially insulted him, and a man like Trevor also loved him. He is a dog lover (He loves Chop and was even friendly to that Ghost Labrador - and I guess he was much capable of communicating with them). Remember when he stopped Dom from doing stupid things that would kill him. Michael was kinda evil - A manipulative lying bastard who though wanted to remain happy, yet was so selfish.. he could kill the person who cared most for him... He had a family and he loved them. But at the same time, he had is selfish desires and his goodness depended on those desires. Trevor. This dude is more crazy than evil.. believe it or not, but in some cases he resorts to violence only as a last resort. (In rampages or killing Debra and Floyd - I highly doubt) but messing with him will give out unpredictable consequences. (Crystal Maze mission). But he was also kind to Patricia, Franklin and (before the revelation of Brad's fate) to Michael as well .. He loved Michael's kids and chop.. So calling him Evil is not apt IMO (He was conditionally evil) IMO, the most evil GTA Protagonist is Claude Speed from GTA II

No fucking way CJ and Trevor isn't S tier for evil. I know people think Trevor is redeemable because he's loyal to his friend but ffs if you aren't his friend you're fair game, he killed Waydes friends for no reason and eaten people just for curiosities sake, how are you getting charmed by a literal serial killer? Also CJ is totally S tier, CJ is a buster that worked for OG Loc and killed / frames innocent people. Not to mention its "implied" CJ abandoned the grove since ballards took over. I would put Niko in D tier since he's one of the 2 protagonist that actually feels bad about the shit he did, he was in the crime world situationally since its all he knew.

Nice video

Claude is pure evil

Uh no, Niko should not be lower than Michael. And Claude should easily be in S, he's Trevor but WAY less loyal.

Claude being below Trevor is a crime in itself, Claude will literally do anything if you pay him enough, hes a true killer, he has no remorse, or morals, all he cares about is the money. Trevor while being "crazy" still has morals, he won't betray people that he trusts and he has his limits , hes not that crazy, he should've been in the B tier and Michael should've been in the C tier.

Money later ,family first - Cj

If Claude isn't S tier, this a garbage list. Same for the PSP Liberty City protagonist.

What about Huang Lee, Mike?

We making it out the trailer park with this one

Toni Cipriani He destroyed an entire neighborhood and countless civilians just because the Don of a rival family was there.

Niko bellic gives me like a more sociopathic character who’s extremely self aware

Niko,tommy and claude are one of the most evil bruh 💀💀

There're oter protagonists who weren't mentioned such as : Claude Speed from GTA 2, Protagonists from GTA 1 (plus 1961/69 DLC) as a potential bonus at the end for potential edited video, Huang Lee from Chinatown Wars and Mikefrom Advance.

Deconstruction is so out-of-character for CJ. A couple of construction workers catcalled his sister, so he choose to massacre everyone and bury their foreman alive in a portable toilet? Like, this is the guy that was somewhat uneased by the thought of hitting a sworn enemy who was attending a funeral (Los Sepulcros). And all the missions for OG Loc too, like you said.

michael is un d tier , the only bad thing he does is making other people help him in doing his work

Its Toni since he blew up a city block killing hundreds

It’s Toni. If you know you know.

Niko and Michael should switch tiers. I mean the worst thing about Michael is that he is untrustworthy, but he definitely doesn't do as many evil deeds as Niko overall. Claude should probably be S tier too. Claude's only motivation seems to be money, he's not loyal to anyone, he doesn't have any actual friends, he will backstab you for money.

How Trevor is not S tier evil is beyond me

Trevor is an S tier

Saying Michael is more evil than niko is crazy work. Nike def ain’t the worst and a loyal guy but he did some horrible stuff in game 💀💀💀😭

I would put them in this order : S+ : Claude S : Toni and gta online character A : CJ, Trevor B : Tommy, Michael and Niko C : Franklin, Luis and Johnny D : Vic E : Huang Lee

If gta v had San fierro and Las Venturas it would have helped the three protagonists and all story characters develop their character more

Niko was one cold mfr by helping smuggle a korean with counterfeits and later offes him, although the reason hes forced to at this point is bcz he has 4 groups after him throughout the story and must amass money in order to go quiet

Toni Cipriani is Pure Evil. Those who played GTA 3's Spin Off knows 💀

Michael a bit lower, Trevor Higher, Tony a bit higher (since he destroyed a yacht and stole a tank), CJ a bit higher,

My tier list that I feel is a little more accurate. S: Toni Cipriani, Claude Speed A: Tommy Vercetti, Trevor Phillips, Niko Bellic B: Carl Johnson, Johnny Klebitz C: Michael De Santa D: Luis Lopez, Haung Lee E: Franklin Clinton, Victor Vance, Mike (GTA Advance)

While talking about CJ "this is the first time a character kills an innocent person" Tervor literally eating a witness from a gas station job

I mean, Niko is probably the only character here that has done “Crimes Against Humanity”-even if we were generous and said his platoon were not genocidal, then he still participated in human trafficking which is still considered a crime against humanity.

Claude, Trevor and Toni. The most badass protagonist in GTA.

Thing is some of the missions in earlier gtas were just there as filler and even though there are cutscenes for them i don't think they ALL can be considered canon. For example in san andreas CJ has to take some photos of the blueprints to Caligulas casino. If he doesn't have a camera at the start you're instructed to kill an npc on the strip and take his. I don't really believe any gta protag would do that rather than just stealing it.

Toni, Claude, and Trevor

I think Michael is more evil than Trevor. Trevor is loyal and honest. Michael denies his anger problems and is dishonest about basically everything. He is Trevor but without the loyalty and drug addiction.

CJ is no more above D if not E. The only innocent people he killed was being forced by Tenpenny, and he literally sets the moral compass for most people who play GTA SA, where he comes back in shame, tries to rise a bit, fails deeply, rises back again, and avenges all friends and family for the betterment of society as a whole.

Luis likes throwing people of the buildings

Claude because he only cares about money and nothings else🤷🏽‍♂️

The aggressive approach to the Diamond Casino heist 👀

Claude has emotions. He got revenege, saves Mariah. He is amoral if anything

I am gonna give Tommy an s . he is the most evil mass murdering main guy in GTA games

CJ was forced to do 90% of the bad stuff he did like you can't run away from corrupt cop who can kill your brother in prison at any moment

"i'm gonna give Tommy an A" *Puts Him In B*

I wrote a comment saying none aude they’re ordinary criminals but i totally missed trevor. I never played with him much so forget about him. He def is the one truly evil protagonist.

Claude is S easy
