Kayle as a support is strong, but situational. Not good for all match-ups.

Laning phase she is an aggressive support (at level 2 she outdamages almost everyone in the game with the Q + E combo, even with 0/9/21 masteries and support runes/items), and her heal is decent for sustain once you level up the base value (it is actually more mana -> health efficient than Soraka's heal). Almost impossible to gank Kayle's lane because of the slow on Q, MS buff on W, and her ult. I run summoner Heal on her to augment the sustain, she usually needs it.

Mid-to-lategame her job is to land a perfect Intervention to win a teamfight. Three seconds of invulnerability on your best DPS, such as the carry, is basically an auto-win unless your team is way behind in farm. Also useful pre-emptively on the initiator to absorb everyone's burst damage on put their stuff on cooldown. Her heal is not great, but with 40% CDR keeps pushes going, and the MS boost helps with positioning. Items, she runs auras and things like Shurelya's.

Never deploy her against people who can out-harass your lane comp. Soraka is better for those, so your carry can afk-farm in peace. Doesn't work in low elo (I found out the hard way), because people are so retarded that they will waste the ult's duration by running around in a circle and not DPS'ing. Soraka/Sona are better. Soraka because of the clutch healing, and Sona because even the biggest derp in the world knows what to do when you drop a Crescendo on the other team.

I play Sona/Soraka/Galio/Kayle as support, depending on the need. Looking to add Alistar eventually. I hate playing support, but I play what the team needs, and through necessity I am getting good at it.
