Line 8:
A good Dream Team has members who, while having majored in the same field, all minored in different specialties. Expect a [[Plot Tailored to The Party]].
 
Dream Teams create a dramatic problem since it is [[Story -Breaker Team -Up|difficult to find a worthy enemy]]. Typical opponents include nature and inherently difficult tasks. It is much easier, for example, to commit a crime than to solve one. Occasionally, an opposing Dream Team or [[Big Bad]] may be invoked; this is a classic approach for superhero Dream Teams, since by definition a best-ever supervillain is the complement of a best-ever superhero. Additionally, Dream Teams can be their own worst enemy, with egos and infighting over approaches limiting their potential effectiveness. There is often a teamwork [[Aesop]] here.
 
Expect the first act to feature an [[Avengers Assemble]] or [[Putting the Band Back Together]] scene allowing the characters to be introduced, and their [[Intro Dump|specialities]] and [[Establishing Character Moment|personalities]] briefly established.
 
Compare [[Massive Multiplayer Crossover]], [[Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny]], [[All -Star Cast]].
 
[[NamesName's the Same|Not to be confused with]] the British soccer club based [[Soap Opera]] ''Dream Team'' which occasionally used this trope but more often ran with a [[Ragtag Bunch of Misfits]].
