Who Wins
- Pre-6 you win by blocking Leona's E with W and using Q-auto trades when she's on cooldown.
- Post-6 you must be more careful of Leona's R but can still disrupt their engage with well-timed W usage.
Synergy & Trading
- Use W to block Leona's E engage then follow up with Q-auto-E combo for favorable trades.
- Your best pattern is saving W for Leona's engage while using Q to poke and zone both enemies.
Wave Control/Roaming
- You should roam when Caitlyn has wave control and vision, typically after shoving waves or when enemies recall.
- Look for roams to mid lane or jungle skirmishes where your R can create picks.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never waste W on minions or use it too early in trades as it's your primary tool against Leona's engage.
- Avoid using R defensively unless absolutely necessary as it's better used for picks and objective control.
