Big reason behind Dark Star is because he actually does speciialize in unarmed combat. His signature move actually involves punching someone's soul.

But consider this. Ruby, despite being leader of team RWBY, is arguably the team's weakest member, as Yang and Weiss were chosen to fight in later rounds of Vytal Festival over her, where as Maka is top of her and has better spirit abilities than Death The Kid, who technically outranks her. I also find that Ruby has a bit of a spotty win/lose ratio.

One more big thing I completely forgot: Maka's soul perception, which allows Maka to sense one's pressence, meaning that she can find Ruby, despite the speed advantage.

I'm planning on looking into Maka's soul-related abilities a bit more to see how it would interact with sembalance. I'm actually really looking forward to the next time this match-up is brought up, because I might have more info for it.
