WHO COUNTERS RUBY
Pick them when the enemy has Ruby · score is their advantage
X.Borg11.1
Anti-regen plus true damage cancels her lifesteal completely, and he keeps enough armour to hold the extended trade she wants.
Kalea10.5
Health-scaling damage out-trades her sustain and the grab catches her mid-combo.
Arlott10.5
You reset onto her repeatedly and punish her every time the hook cooldown is spent.
Phoveus8.9
Her passive dashes with every skill cast, so each combo she throws feeds your chase — the largest measured edge against her.

Joy9.6
Your control lands the moment Joy commits to the jump.
BEST TEAMMATES
HOW TO PLAY RUBY
You rely entirely on Spell Vamp; basic attacks do not trigger lifesteal for you. Use your passive dash after every skill to reposition, dodge skill-shots, and stack your defense bonuses. Your S2 is a micro-stun that can instantly cancel enemy channelings and dashes. A classic combo is Ultimate + Flicker backward to drag enemies deeply under your tower.
HOW TO PLAY AGAINST RUBY
- No protection from control — a stun before the engage wins the duel.
