I definitely agree with Ember Celica though that fight was just all around sloppy. We know that Ruby can use her semblance pretty fluidly now but she didn't use it once that entire fight. If the shimmers really were from Tyrian doing something to weaken Ruby or suppress her abilities, as suggested above, then she might not have been able to use her Semblance. Those hits she took from him that made her Aura shimmer really seemed to take a lot out of her.
