Yeah, I have. I always run the following strategy against Ruby, has worked flawlessly every time since I first tried it out:

1) Enter battle with only one character alive (and that character has some means of reiving the entire party in one turn, ie, Phoenix or Revive combined with All).
2) Revive your entire party as soon as Ruby sticks his claws into the ground (so that the claws come up behind you), not before that.
2) Use W-Summon to cast Hades followed by KOTR.
3) Mime until Ruby dies.

Reason why this works is that Hades stops Ruby. Stop is basically the only status effect of Hades that works on him, and it works every time. A stopped Ruby can't do jack all

I haven't beaten him without KOTR, haven't even bothered to try.. maybe some day.. in the distant future..
