We're hitting the middle of 2018, can we finally address Kennen mid's wave clear problems?

The primary problem being that in order for him to clear a wave, he has to run directly into and threw the wave, which isn't remotely safe or possible (even if it's under the turret) while he's being sieged after bottom turret falls.

This effectively starves him of gold and removes him from the game, without having any way to remain/get back into the mid to late game.

Kennen hasn't been viably picked in mid in about 5 years, give or take, and this is exactly why. Riot did just recently, and are continuing to with the recent Taliyah changes, nerf the waveclear on mages. Assassins already have bad waveclear. Pick him against, say, a Zed or a Fizz, rush out a Zhonya's, and you'll do much better than picking him vs any old mage. Or just play him top lane.
