Playing Kayle support is like playing Xerath support. Yeah, you got poke, guess what, other dedicated Supports do so too and have utility attached to them, so they can work with limited gold and not be sitting ducks once lane is over or a gank occurs and you get behind.

Kayle has a decent heal and has % Resistance shreds, but you are wasting an Offensive oriented character that has no real engage or "back pedal" just because you find her damage "lower" overall.

If she had her old heal or if her old heal worked the lower HP you had, the more you would get healed or even better, if she had her Ult cooldown nerfs reverted, then, I could see SOME reason to play her as a Support. She is just a poormans Zilean. Even Annie, as a pure Mage, offers more into a team as an Engage support than Kayle would ever do with a Support based Build. She is just mediocre at that.
