This was a long time ago, so I'll do my best to remember, also, keep in mind that the reason I failed was because I didn't have a guide, no DLC characters, and this was my first Mass Effect game;I knew nothing of biotic and tech.

I failed Samara's loyalty mission, Tali was exiled, and the Normandy did not have any upgrades.

On approach to the Collector base, Tali, Jack, and Thane died. I Chose Grunt as fire team leader and Garrus as Tech specialist, Garrus died.

I forget who I sent back to escort the crew, or rather what was left of the crew, but I think that person survived.

For second fire team leader, I chose Grunt again, and Miranda a Biotic specialist, Legion was killed by seeker swarms, yet for whatever reason Grunt survived.

I don't remember who I chose to go with me to fight the Human-Reaper, but I think Grunt was with me, leaving Miranda and either Jacob, Samara, or Mordin. Miranda died (If I left Mordin behind, God only knows how he survived.)

Leaving me stuck with Jacob, Samara, Mordin, and Grunt.
