She's clearly a viable pick but to me what she brings most of all is great utility. Her ult can set up for perfect AOE attacks or disables, so she synergizes amazingly with anyone who has an AOE damage or disable. Her shields are handy because even when she builds full ap carry she can save her teammates lives or send the ball onto champions with great gapclosers to let them compensate for relatively small range on her Command Attack. She can also constantly speed up/slow down everyone to help chases, aid in escapes, or simply help her teammates get back to lane faster. Her Command Attack is also amazing because she can scout bushes from a safe range and watch ganking points while taking dragon, baron, or buffs. Also she's one of the few AP champions that isn't completely disabled when silenced. But hey, this is just my experience with her.
