I think that despite the fact that Ruby is clearly a silly kid, when it comes to fighting monsters, she's got that thing down. And when coming up with battle strategy, she's got awesome ideas. But I think that Weiss and Ruby together are great, because Weiss works long range, combinding with Ruby's more so close range (yeah, she's both distance and close range fighter). Perhaps that's why they are called RWBY, having Ruby and Weiss start the group. Followed by the two who seem better off alone. And they seem better working together anyways, probably why they were the first to meet up during episode 8.
