The main reason her silence is so good in lane is because everyone insists on pairing an autoattack champion with the support, so there's no question of whom to target with the silence. Pair someone like Talon, Pantheon, or Ezreal with a CC-heavy bursty pseudo-support or tank like Lux, Alistar, or Leona and see how well she can protect herself or her laning partner. Or better yet, do a magic-heavy combo so the insta-armor heal doesn't block your harass. She's really powerful against the current meta, but saying that she should be nerfed because of that is like saying paper should be nerfed because people can't figure out how to play anything besides rock.
