Essence Flux needs a rework

Almost every other ADC has some sort of waveclear ability and I feel like it could easily be implimented onto Ezreal as well, then maybe he would be a more solid choice for bot lane instead of mid lane. Also, he is an ADC that does not build statikk shiv regularly as well, his wave clear is actually really poor without using his ultimate, but it feels like his ult is used on a wave much much more than it is for teamfights and sniping. It would also make W worth picking up. As it stands now, it is just a big mana dump for no damage even to champions who'm it was meant for and scales off of AP. It isn't even worth taking at all as AD. You could argue that it is an attack speed buff for allies.. but really.. Does that really warrant that it is practically unusable in lane? The AP version in terms of damage is completely fine however his waveclear is still terrible, so could we have Essence Flux also hit minions? There is no reason it shouldn't especially since it is narrow, short, and does terrible damage as AD with no scaling. Don't just take my suggestion into account, feel free to leave a suggestion on ways to change Essence Flux to not be garbage (besides ap version of course)

ADCs with waveclear abilities:

Ashe Volley Caitlyn Peacemaker Corki Phos bomb Graves Buckshot Jinx rockets Kog ooze and artillery Lucian Piercing Light MF make it rain.. somewhat (AP clears wave at least) Sivir boomerang Tristana passive, rocket jump, explosive charge, pretty much everything Twitch contaminate Varus Piercing Arrow and Hail of arrows

And just one SMALL quality of life change (not even a buff) Have Arcane Shift prioritize champions (Frustration intensifies)

Yay make him more op, if you did that its just a buff to his ap side, he can w q a wave early and boom whole wave done after first back. (Essence flux is the only thing that makes him bad bcz of the lack of waveclear)

Thats the downside when you play an ADC with a good poke and blink

Vayne - no waveclear Twitch - Tristana - she can push the wave with E, but that's not really waveclear Teemo - only with ult Quinn -... MF - ult Kennen - no waveclear Kalista - no Jinx - Q spam Jayce - only if you go AP and melee Draven - no
