Raph does high damage, but his lack of range makes it harder to attack without getting hit. He's a "git good" character. However, there's really not that big of an advantage to using him-- it's just a flex like playing Silksong without using your tools.
It's actually a bit more complex than that. Apparently there's a power boost mechanic that kicks in when a turtle is at 50% health for everyone except Raphael.
Above 50% raph is second only to Donatello. Below that, raph actually has the lowest damage per hit even compared to Leonardo or Michelangelo :o
