History Main / BalanceSpeedStrengthTrio

* ''VideoGame/Bounce'': In ''Bounce Tales'', Bounce can gain three forms - the red, default form he starts with is the Balanced, when he rendezvous with his old friend, Rock, he can gain a rock form being the Strength, and later in the circus stage when Bounce saves the Circus Ball, he'll gain the circus ball form as Speed.

* [[AntiMagic Asta]], [[BlowYouAway Yuno]], and [[MakingASplash Noelle Silva]] fit this dynamic as the main trio of ''Manga/BlackClover''. Asta is the Strength, relying on his physicality and swordsmanship to nullify other magic. Yuno is the Speed with Wind Magic that lets him move fast with quick spells. And Noelle is the Balance with her versatile water spells that can form powerful blasts or barriers.
* [[AllLovingHero Tanjiro Kamado]], [[CowardlyLion Zenitsu Agatsuma]], and [[WildMan Inosuke Hashibara]] from ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba'' fit each dynamic, respectively, with their breathing techniques. Tanjiro is the Balance who wields the versatile Water Breathing and Hinokami Kagura. Zenitsu is the Speed who cuts at the blink of an eye with the Thunder Breathing's [[FlashStep first]] [[CripplingOverspecialization form]], and Inosuke is the Strength who uses the Beast Breathing which emphasizes wild, but strong strikes.

** Team BAD; Wrestling/SashaBanks is the Balanced One (a traditional wrestler with power-based and submission finishers but could also perform aerial maneuvers), Wrestling/{{Naomi}} is the Fast One (plenty of aerial maneuvers being a former cheerleader), and Wrestling/TaminaSnuka is the Strong One (a BrawnHilda who is a power-based wrestler).

If a fourth character joins the trio having abilities the others don't, then the group often becomes BalancePowerSkillGimmick. If one of the trio is a girl (usually the quick one), then it's the ThreeAmigos. And of course, if a couple of characters join the main trio during the adventure, then it's ThreePlusTwo.

* While this trope's archetype in Creator/DCComics superheroes should be Franchise/{{Batman}}, Franchise/TheFlash and Franchise/{{Superman}} as the balance, speed and strength respectively when they're on the same team (as the ComicBook/JusticeLeague), this trope is mostly seen in and applied to their disciples assembled in ''ComicBook/YoungJustice'' and later in ''ComicBook/TeenTitans'' teams: ComicBook/{{Robin}} (Tim Drake), ComicBook/{{Impulse}} (Bart Allen) and ComicBook/{{Superboy}} (Conner Kent/Kon-El). It also applied to ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} (Dick Grayson), speedster Jesse Quick (Jesse Chambers) and ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} (Kara Zor-El) when they were members of the Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica.

* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'': The main PowerTrio composed of Sonic (speed), Tails (balance) and Knuckles (strength).

* '''[[FragileSpeedster The Fast-but-Weak One]]:''' This character is usually TheLancer or TheChick of the group, a (usually) skinny character that's also the fastest one of the group, having not just more speed and movement, but also being able to make the largest combos in the game. If it's not skinny, then it's WeakButSkilled compared with the other two, probably a trained martial artist. Subverted by the {{Acrofatic}} who looks heavy, but moves like he's light.

If a fourth character joins the trio having abilities the others don't, then the group often becomes BalancePowerSkillGimmick. If one of the trio is TheChick (usually the quick one), then it's the ThreeAmigos. And of course, if a couple of characters join the main trio during the adventure, then it's ThreePlusTwo.

* TheNineties Creator/{{Banpresto}} UsefulNotes/ArcadeGame ''Metamoqester'' is a {{Toku}} BossRush that has this setting with [[{{Ninja}} Tenchimaru]], [[{{Miko}} Yukihime]] and [[WarriorMonk Kaiohmaru]] as the balance, speed and strength, respectively.
