The R/B Kourin has several different attack modes, each of them are differentiated by the color of the Kiwami kanji symbol on the Crystal. While yellow by default, it becomes red in Rosso Mode (ロッソモード, Rosso Mōdo) and blue in Blu Mode (ブルモード, Buru Mōdo).

Standard
  • Deflection: Using the R/B Kourin, Ruebe can deflect incoming projectile attacks.
  • Kourin Protection (コウリンプロテクション, Kōrin Purotekushon): The R/B Kourin is capable of absorbing an enemy's energy beam and redirecting it back towards them.
  • Barrier: The R/B Kourin is able to project an energy barrier in the shape of a spinning buzzsaw.
  • Energy Slash: In Ultraman Fusion Fight!, Ruebe can fire a crescent-shaped energy slash from the R/B Kourin.
Rosso Mode
  • Buzzsaw Slash: While the Ruebe Kourin is in Rosso Mode, the blades on it can rotate and act as a buzzsaw cutter.
  • Vortex Buster (ボルテックバスター, Borutekku Basutā): Exclusive to the DX toy. It is performed by inserting any R/B Crystal on the weapon instead of the Kiwami Crystal.
    • Ruebe Vortex Buster (ルーブボルテックバスター, Rūbu Borutekku Basutā): Using the power of the Kiwami Crystal, Ruebe fires a destructive, rainbow-colored, tornado-like beam from the radius of the R/B Kourin.
      • Shin Vortex Buster (シン・ボルテックバスター, Shin Borutekku Basutā, lit. True Vortex Buster): A destruction ray 10 times more powerful than the the Ruebe Vortex Buster, fired using the Makoto Crystal (in its closed form) in place of the Kiwami Crystal. It was powerful enough to destroy Leugocyte.
      • Gruebe Vortex Buster (グルーブボルテックバスター, Gurūbu Borutekku Basutā): The upgraded version of the Ruebe Vortex Buster using the Makoto Crystal. It is fired as a rainbow colored beam.
Blu Mode
  • Dashing Slash: While the Ruebe Kourin is in Blu Mode, Ruebe can accelerate to high speeds and land multiple slashes on the opponent.
  • Kourin Shot (コウリンショット, Kōrin Shotto): Exclusive to the DX toy. It is performed by inserting any R/B Crystal on the weapon instead of the Kiwami Crystal.
    • Ruebe Kourin Shot (ルーブコウリンショット, Rūbu Kōrin Shotto): Using the power of the Kiwami Crystal, a buzzsaw slashing projectile is shot from the R/B Kourin.
      • Shin Kourin Shot (シン・コウリンショット, Shin Kōrin Shotto, lit. True Kourin Shot): An even more powerful version of the Ruebe Kourin Shot, using the Makoto Crystal (in its closed form) in place of the Kiwami Crystal.
      • Gruebe Kourin Shot (グルーブコウリンショット, Gurūbu Kōrin Shotto): An upgraded version of Ruebe's Ruebe Kourin Shot, using the Makoto Crystal in place of the Kiwami Crystal. Gruebe fires three cutting halos from the R/B Kourin.
