Honestly zilean is one of the best "pub stomper" supports, at least for the summoner's rift.

Go for mana regen and cooldown reduction items (shurelia, support masteries, the miracle, the chalice/grail) and you can spam your Rewind every time and any other spell - and with 40% cooldown reduction (+Rewind), your ultimate will have a cooldown of about 30 seconds. This pretty much makes it always a good choice to cast your ultimate, even if you are not fully sure will your teammate die or live with 1% hp.

The enemy team will probably go for your adc/apc and, if your teammates are competent, at least one (or two) enemies will die while killing your adc/apc - which you will, of course, bring back from the dead. This results in your team having a great advantage, and with proper items and Rewind spam you can do it again in ~30 seconds!

Also make sure you get the wards at start and Sightstone as soon as possible - you are a support, and protecting your teammates is your most important job.
