Who Wins

Pre-6, you lose the 2v2 — Blitzcrank hook into Caitlyn headshot and trap is a kill combo you cannot survive or trade back against at levels 1-3 because your damage requires stacks you haven't built yet.
Post-6, the lane remains dangerous but Lux R gives you a long-range finisher that can punish an overextended Caitlyn, and your R lets you follow up on a Lux root for a kill if they misposition.

Play reactively — let Lux land her E root first, then follow up with your W and auto stacks to maximize damage on a locked target rather than trying to engage independently.
Do not try to all-in without Lux's root because Caitlyn's range and Blitzcrank's hook will punish you before you can stack enough autos to be relevant.

Push the wave quickly to deny Caitlyn her range advantage under tower and reduce the space Blitzcrank has to hook you — a wave crashing into their tower forces them to CS in a tighter space and limits hook angles.
Avoid letting the wave sit in the middle of the lane where Blitzcrank has maximum hook range and Caitlyn can freely poke you.

Do not try to farm aggressively in the open against this lane — every time you step up to CS you are in Blitzcrank's hook range, and a single hook into Caitlyn's full combo will kill you before you can stack your passive.
Play behind minions and accept some CS loss early rather than giving them a free kill that accelerates Caitlyn's item lead.
