Um... There is no way to truly tell if Ryu or Roy are overpowered yet at all. They came out two days ago and no one has had time to adapt, also tourney results speak for these things. The people that need nerfs are Sheik and Rosalina. That's IT. Nintendo needs to get out of the mindset that nerfing people into ground meat is the best option, because all it does is make the characters less fun as well as make a lot of the cast STILL go unused because the characters who actually need HELP are left unchanged.
That said, they did well this patch. If you go to Smashboards or r/smashbros, people have compiled lists of what they've found out changed in this patch (because this company is too archaic for patch notes). Falco and Charizard are characters with huge problems that made them just abysmal to play, they've both been buffed. Apparently Falco's NAir is now the combo tool he needed because it has a vacuum windbox, Charizard's downthrow was weakened to let it combo as well as its upthrow now being the most powerful upthrow option in the history of Smash (sorry Mewtwo).
A lot of other bad characters were touched up too slightly. Yay~ Zelda's upsmash kills 20% earlier, Samus and Link's upsmash are less easy to escape with DI!
Also I wouldn't say Sonic is a bit decent in this game, he's actually considered busted, trailing up there with the likes of Diddy, Luigi, Ness, Pikachu, Rosalina, and Sheik... Kind of above the what people are considering the high-mid tiers at this point (Mario, Captain Falcon, Villager, Pit, Pitoo...etc)

Oh my lord, Roy has only made it apparent how borderline useless Marth is in this game. What they did to Marth in Smash 4 should be a sin... Fucking... Dagger...
