If it doesn't come to blows between Weiss and Blake in the first few episodes, I will be very surprised.

As for Ruby, Weiss is probably going to be the bane of her existence at Beacon, until Ruby finds out that Weiss isn't naturally such a bitch. At that point, I imagine Weiss will open up to Ruby and then they'll get along well.

I'm also under the impression that Weiss is kind of cynical, being the daughter of (for all intents and purposes) an aristocratic merchant. In keeping with her whole "Ice" motif, her parents were likely very distant towards her and viewed her as an heiress rather than a child. As such, Weiss has never really had a true friend, and she must think that if her parents are assholes, the rest of the world can't be much better.

Weiss aside, I imagine Ruby is going to become something of a prodigy at Beacon, given her obsession and advanced training. While earning the respect of her teachers, it will also earn her some envy, and possibly cause some tension between her and the rest of her friends. But I imagine Ruby will eventually prove herself to the rest of the school, and maybe even earn a compliment from Glynda.
