After first trolling on-lane Soraka and finding out that she actually is viable, I started to love support Soraka, and your tips are truly helpfull, especially by disabling the assassins you can enlarge your impact on the game just so awesomely.

As I like to play semi-aggressive on-lane with Soraka as the most adc's don't seem to understand the concept of small trades and constant poking, I prefer to use the silence right when the grab/hook/dash goes out, as it will stop the enemy from chaining his abilities and because pretty much every engage-skill got a higher cd than the silence, you afterwards got free harassing time, for you and your adc (you propably will disagree with me here, but in e.g. Plat I-V the adc's got no proper answer on AA-harass when they are about to last-hit, and the coin gives quite some extra sustain)

As there are situations in which you can make the whole game, I had situations as well in which any hard CC would have been 1000 times more usefull than all the abilities Soraka got - e.g. vs. a fed Draven your team just can not kill (if you got tips here aswell, I just had near to no impact and the common comment "You should have picked an actually usefull support" made the game even less enjoyable).
