I stopped using it by the time most people were lvl 60 in Velious that I fought

You are wrong about it being rare that people channeled through it, and need to calm down
I think the level of the spell effected how hard it was to channel after movement. Gate being a low level spell made it easier to channel. So it was harder to channel Sunstrike than it is draught of fire or gate. Also the direction the target convulsed was based on the direction your character was facing. So you could rotate your character while you were casting it to achieve different movement effects on the enemy. To achieve a higher chance to interrupt you would want to rotate so they would move diagonally or sideways. This made it harder to simply step forward or backwards and adjust your position to the start of the channel.
