Whip it whip it good

So I have been thinking for a weapon that has been used all over the world and has a long history and is still used today! The whip! I think it would be really cool to have an adc that would count as melee but still have some range! You could go a lot of different ways with it design wise and I think a really cool ultimate would be pulling out a second whip for a limited time but doubling attack speed. Clearly you would need a slow attack speed growth but you could have a large base attack. The champ would not have strong wave clear and not the greatest range so still counter play. Could fill a few different roles but that depends on how you balance it. I think this could be a cool concept!
