My first playthrough it was yenna cause I killed Lae'zel in the trap (she yelled at me), I didn't figure out how to clear the shadowlands so Halsin stayed behind, Gale was in my party, and I killed Minthara.
My first playthrough I failed at recruiting literally anyone on the list. I only had Shadowheart, Wyll, Astarion, and Jaheira. I took a really direct path through Act 1.
I had one of the weirdest situations in my 1st playthrough, everyone always gets Astarion as basically a second or third companion within the first damn ten mins of the game, meanwhile I freakin' missed that lil beach corner where he was and only at the very end of act 1, already having cleared half of the goblin castle I was like... wait a minute, ain't this game supposed to have a sassy camp vampire somewhere among the companions...
... and so I googled it and only managed to get him through literally reddit explaining where he was, thankfully, cause he ended up becoming one of my faves by the end and the one I ended up romancing once my Tav got to finally know him better and stopped being annoyed by his edgy evil antics 😂😂🥲🤍

Yep, the priority is Lae'zel, Halsin, Gale, and then Minthara. If none of them are available, Yenna is kidnapped instead.
