They're both the posterchildren and they're both fast as fucc

That being said I gotta EQUALIZE SPEED since Tracer blitzes hard

Win via KO, incapacitation, or death. (Click images to see profiles)

Ruby-0
Tracer- Portraitt
 
Just a friendly reminder that Tracer's speed is supposed to be downgraded back to High Hypersonic but yeah she would still blitz
 
I mean it gets affected by Sombra's EMP but... so does everything. Including McCree's ability to roll and 76's ability to sprint.

Other than that there's nothing to suggest it can or cannot.
 
Then again she literally HAD to use it to dodge Widowmaker hitting it with her sniper rifle and doomfist ripped it apart with his bare hands so it can be destroyed just with attacks

...Did anyone ever calc Tracer reacting to Widow's bullet btw?
 
8-C+, High 8-C with Semblance pre-timeskip

High 8-C, Higher with Semblance Post Timeskip

This is Post Timeskip Ruby
 
I'm gonna side with Ruby. Her Aura should help her take whatever Tracer can dish out, her Semblance can give her the speed advantage, and Crescent Rose gives her the edge in CQC.
 
Tracers blink should allow her to keep up with Rubys petal burst, as well as Tracer having the unlimited ammo and the much more consistaent bullets.

And of course CFC would be hard with an opponent like Tracer, and the fact she can Rewind any damage she took in order to exhaust Ruby

Ima go for Tracer.

My votes Tracer for his resaon
 
Thing is Tracer cant rewind time as often as she wants and if she doesnt rewind time immediately she doesnt reverse any damage

And again if he Accelerator gets damaged she cant rewind time at all
 
Tracer having the unlimited ammo and the much more consistaent bullets.

? (Also both combatants I think have unlimited ammo)
 
Ruby won't be able to get close to Tracer and her blink

No, Ruby won't be able to get unlimited ammo,

And by consistent, I mean the faster, more rapid fire bullets to wear down her aura faster. And no, speed equalized doesn't change that, Ruby wields a sniper rifle gun, that's slow but heavier damage, but that won't put down tracer since she can easily dose that sort of fire. Not to mention having pulse bombs as well to do the heavier damage, and the better OW training and experience
 
Tracer's weapons are only effective in a close to mid-close range, she would basically HAVE to het in range of Ruby's attacks if she wants to do any real damage, and Ruby's Semblance is inarguably more effective than Tracer's Blink
 
And elemental intangibility with her semblance which can also create tornados

Coming from someone who is knowledgeable on both Overwatch and RWBY, Ruby takes this with some difficulty
 
Shes shown to be able to shoot them large distances in the cinematics. Enough to keep her range consistent at least. Tracers whole deal is chip damage from far away, on characters like reinhardt and Winston.

Meanwhile Ruby will drain her aura and exhaust by using her semblance too much just like Tracer. Maybe not as fast, but at least Tracer can completely restore herself with rewind, and keep chipping Ruby down

Plus shes shown to be able to disarm peoples weapons, like with Widowmaker. And we all know how useless Ruby is in hand to hand.

Ruby can still be hit in her roses form, like Mercury did to hit her, she has to split in order to avoid attacks. I doubt that can make her immune to an explosion.
 
No actually she hasnt, at least not effectively she hasnt. Against both Widowmaker and Reaper she needed to be at least somewhat close for her guns to be moderately effective.

Semblances dont drain aura. Tracer cant spam her time rewinds.

Yes because she's never shown to use her semblance to kick a Griffon through an airship before or to take out team JNPR.

That was pre-timeskip before she mastered her semblance. She can just disperse around the explosion with her splitting.

Shes still a lot bettee with closer distance than Ruby, it goes far, but theyre less consistent, Tracer would chip easily. Andd actually, she was at least keeping bead with Widowmaker as she was running across buildings. She didnt hit her, but it was still quite a far distance.

Using semblances constantly still exhaust people, and with exhaustion, aura dwindles. Like how Sun was vulnerable. Its not like Rubys ever been legitimately hard to tag with her semblance.

She kicked down a griffin, not into an airship, she was struggling to kill one in fact. And she didnt take team JNPR out seriously. It was a friendly spar, and they were all laughing afterwards, with no signs of aura breaking. Ruby never phased through anyone though, and as if she could beat Pyrrha.

She never explained to have mastered it, just do some more fancier tricks, this waa never stated that her semblance doesnt have its weak spot, otherwise it can just phase through enemies aswell. The explosion sticks to her aswell, and we can see she can also petal burst anything thats touching her, like her clothes, her weapon, and even other people. She wont escape it
