Ruby is Brawler #111, a Mythic Damage Dealer, and the last reveal of the November sneak peeks. From what we've seen of her kit, she's going to be a menace in Hot Zone.
One Card for 800, Both for 2,400
Draw Two sends a club and a diamond along a figure-eight path. At Power 11, each card deals 800 damage, and hitting with both at the same time brings the attack to 2,400. The bonus is as large as a card hit, so spending some time practicing and learning the attack pattern is a good idea.
Try the attack from a few distances in Training Grounds. A stationary bot makes it easier to see where the cards cross before you try lining them up on someone dodging in a lane.

Royal Flush Turns a Tank's Health Against Them
Royal Flush creates a field that lasts four seconds. It grounds enemies inside, and five shots swirl through it. At Power 11, each shot deals 15% of a Brawler's maximum health, with a 1,000 damage minimum. That's 1,500 per hit on a tank with 10,000 HP. A Brawler with 6,000 HP takes 1,000 because of the minimum.
Colette also deals a percentage of her target's max health with her Super. She deals 22% per hit and has to dash through the enemy. Ruby can drop her Super on the zone while a teammate is moving in. A tank that stays to contest has to fight that teammate and dodge the shots circling the zone.
Grounding is what we'd test against assassins. We want to see what happens when they try to dash or jump out of the field.

Our Kit of Choice
Stack the Deck fires four bouncing spades that knock enemies back. We'd take it on a map where an assassin can get close through bushes or around a wall. A hit can give Ruby room to back away.
If a teammate needs help staying on the zone, there's Shuffle and Cut. It throws a heart that splits into five shots when it hits an enemy or reaches max range. At Power 11, those shots can heal allies for 1,600 or deal 15% max health damage to enemies.
Lucky Number gives Royal Flush more shots, which is useful when enemies have to walk onto the zone to contest it. Double or Nothing adds max-health damage over time when both cards hit. In lane, the damage keeps ticking even if the tank ducks behind a wall after the hit.

Ruby gets All In! in a later update. Her Hypercharge makes Royal Flush bigger and sends more shots out from enemies it hits.

The King and Queen in the Same Draft
Power Couple is a trait that kicks in when Ruby and Rey are on the same team. They can aim their main attacks at each other to heal, and both move 10% faster toward their partner.
Watch Power Couple in action
We'd try the pair on a map where Rey can see the edge of the zone. Ruby can hold the point while he lines up a shot on anyone backing out of Royal Flush.
Ruby's Prestige title is Poker Face, and her Mastery title is The House Always Wins.
