Wut? She does have wave clear and her Q is one of the longest skill shots in the game. She can do fine against siege with her Q and her own E, and then of course just wave clearly with W. if you build her full AP then one W clears the waves. Oh, if you go mid you'll prolly build full ap.
She was a mid laner before this season when people wanted her to be a support. Literally nothing changed besides her numbers and that was after people started taking her support. Same with Annie and Zyra. Those are mid lane champs that people took bot lane to crush lanes so they'd have high early game damage with good early/mid game ADCs.
Play her in a custom or bot game and watch how she has consistent wave clear throughout the game when built ap.
