Yep, welcome to 2012. Kayle is no longer a really effective hybrid champion, due to the loss of her passive and the reduction of her AP ratios. There are only three builds on her that I would consider "viable":

1) Straight AD carry. Uses more AS than most carries build, because of her on-hit steroid, but builds IE, BT, PD, etc. Works top lane, bot lane (sort of), and jungle.

2) On-hit. Build stuff like Wit's End, Malady, Madred's, etc. Cheaper and tankier, but loses out on sustain, AOE damage, and pushing power. Top or jungle.

3) 0 CS support. Very nice now that her base heal is better. Builds standard GP/10 items that you find on other supports, but has an autoattack support niche with items like Zeke's Herald.

Everything else is basically shit. AP is bad, hybrid is bad, bruiser is bad.
