Who Wins

Pre-6, your W sustain and E empowered autos give you and Caitlyn a clear edge — Senna's Q sustain cannot keep up with your W healing output when you're also applying consistent auto pressure.
Post-6, your R is a stronger teamfight tool than Senna's R in a 2v2 context since it knocks up both enemies and sets up Caitlyn's headshots, maintaining your lane dominance.

Your best pattern is to use E on Caitlyn when she's about to auto-attack a trapped enemy, tripling the empowered auto value — this forces Senna and Jhin to either take massive burst or burn summoners.
Save W primarily for Caitlyn rather than healing yourself; keeping Caitlyn at full health maximizes her aggression window and denies Senna the poke-to-kill condition.

You should not roam early because Senna's soul collection is time-sensitive and leaving Caitlyn alone against Senna's Q sustain and Jhin's burst is risky — your presence is what makes this lane dominant.
If you do roam, the best timing is after a successful kill or when both enemies are low and backing, using your R to assist mid while Caitlyn freezes the wave near tower.

Do not use W reactively to heal chip damage — save it for when Caitlyn is committing to a full trade or when a kill window opens, as wasting W on small poke means it's on cooldown when Jhin's 4th shot or Senna's Q root lands.
Avoid missing your Q bubble in all-in situations; a missed bubble means Senna and Jhin can freely disengage or turn the fight, and your CC is the backbone of every kill setup.
