Who Wins

Pre-6, you lose the 2v2 — Leona's all-in is faster and more reliable than your passive stack setup, and Caitlyn's range means you cannot safely walk up to stack passive without eating headshots.
Post-6, your R becomes a critical interrupt tool against Leona's engage pattern, and the lane becomes more survivable, but you are still reactive rather than proactive.

Your best trading pattern is to position your W between Caitlyn and Ashe to block Q pokes, then look for Leona to overextend her E so you can R to interrupt her follow-up and let Ashe disengage safely.
Do not try to initiate yourself — your passive stack setup requires multiple autos that Caitlyn's range will punish before you can complete them.

You should not roam in this matchup — Ashe is vulnerable to Leona's all-in without your peel, and leaving her alone even briefly will result in a kill for the enemy.
Stay in lane and focus on keeping Ashe alive through the laning phase.

Do not use your W reactively to block a single poke — save it for Leona's E engage or Caitlyn's headshot during a committed all-in, as wasting W on a Q poke leaves Ashe unprotected during the actual fight.
Also avoid standing in a position where Leona can E onto you instead of Ashe, as your tankiness will keep you alive but Ashe will be left exposed and killed.
