A character that is dedicated to healing shouldn't be going solo. It's controversial. All other supports could do it, but their viability in solo lanes is inversely proportional to their support dedication. Champions like Karma, Blitzcrank and Annie in solo are maybe as good as support (not sure about Blitz), but some other supports, like Thresh and Sona work way better with an ally - they still can do it though.

It feels weird that Soraka is the only one that will (probably) be completely unviable as a solo laner, but I can see the reason.
