I am not really the best one to be asked for game play effectiveness, i dont have good experience, but  my theory for him is as follow:

I think he will perform the best in an Arts crits teams. With NP5 he should works as main damage dealer, but he definitely needs defensive and survival support. The best support i can lend to him are :

Gilcas: To buff the Attack and Arts up a bit more, the first skill also make Gil himself a good star generator in a NP or AAA/QAA brave chain. The defense down on enemies will also increases Ryoma's damage.

Hans: Crit damage up and steady star gen. The NP is OP for 2*.

Mashu: Best defensive support. Ryoma has no survival skill, so this is very obvious.

Emiya Assassin: His star gen is good, and his taunt can also save other allies.

Obviously the mega Memelord Trio which i dont have especially the fake chinese(Waver) and the Fox are also the best support to him. Jeanne will be solid support if you are placing him in a semi stalling team, with him also acting as both the damage dealer and NP staller.

He skill set is really mediocre, with the 3rd skill being slightly better than the other two, but support wise they are just meh. There might be a false impression that he hits very hard for now but that's because he has an attack bonus. However his attack is slightly higher than Gilcas, and with proper support even Gilcas can be a damage dealer, so i really think the same will work for him, especially being an Arts Critter with offensive deck composition, above the average hit counts and solid NP gain.

So, as main damage dealer, he has huge potential. But as a support, he's kinda meh and really requires another well rounded solid support, like the memelords.

CE wise, i have been using Another Ending on him. CEs with Arts up, NP gain up and Crit up should be good on him. Starting NP CEs are not the best, nor they are bad, but multi-effect ones like Dive to Blue(be sure get you MLB copy in the upcoming Dead Heat Re-run!) are more preferable.

CE list - non event ones

Formalcraft, Projection, Blue Black Keys(Meh).

Prisma Cosmos, Divine Banquet

Another Ending, Gem-Magecraft:Antumbra, Covering Fire.

Phew~ Please correct me if i was misinforming! >,,<
