She falls into a group of champions that transition over the game into basically a champion that does nothing but support allies and disable enemies + some poke.

Lux, Nunu, Zilean, Heimer, Zyra, and some others all fall into this group. They can be played as support(several of them even have this tag), but they can play other roles as well or even better than being a pure support.

The thing though is that due to their lack of scaling and/or their damage being limited to only 1-2 spells (Zilean with only time bomb is the best example) they wind up being more useful for their utility rather than their damage/power once late game turns around.
