Who Wins

Pre-6, Caitlyn's range advantage (650 vs 525) and Leona's level 2 all-in make this lane heavily unfavorable for you — you will consistently be poked out and punished if you try to trade early.
Post-6, your R gives you a meaningful escape tool against Leona's engage, but Caitlyn's traps under your feet during your R animation and Leona's CC chain still make the 2v2 a losing fight unless Morgana lands a clean W first.

Your best pattern is to let Morgana's W land first, then immediately Q into the rooted target and auto-attack to stack feathers, finishing with E to proc the root and deal burst — never initiate yourself into Leona.
Without Morgana's W connecting, you have no safe trade window given Caitlyn's range and Leona's dive threat.

Push the wave consistently with Q to deny Caitlyn her trap-under-tower setup and force her to use traps reactively rather than offensively; a slow-pushed wave gives Leona free engage angles on you.
Avoid freezing near your tower since Leona can still dive you with Caitlyn's headshot setup, and a pushed wave at least forces them to respect the jungle.

Do not use R purely as damage — save it as a disengage tool when Leona has already committed her E and R, because burning it offensively means you die to the follow-up CC chain.
Using R while Morgana's W is not active or while you are already CC'd is a wasted cooldown that will cost you the fight.
