Lots of supports have tools to counter Leona and Morg isn't even that good against a good Leona who knows how to bait shield and then go for the non-shielded target.

Janna has an easy lane because she can knock Leona out of her E and can match Leona's ult engage with her own ult's disengage.

Nami can land super easy bubbles on Leona whenever she goes to go in and like Janna can disengage with ult if the need arises. Nami also has good poke and can and will whittle Leona down if Leona doesn't play smart.

Alistar just denies Leona everything, can ult out of her stuns, can knock Leona out of her E, can knock Leona away from his carries, can win an adc poke war with his E.

Thresh works kind of like a weaker Ali with his CC keeping Leona or her adc at bay but also has lantern to get his adc out of the fray and more poke, as long as he's careful about her Es.

Zyra just pokes pokes pokes and if Leona or her ADC are under 70% they run the risk of just getting deleted by her all-in combo, especially if she plays it smart and roots+ults the ADC before they can get in auto range.

I hate Leona, I hate her a lot, I think she's too strong at doing what she does but she definitely has her weaknesses and counters that make her somewhat balanced.

Like Morg, you have to play around the fact she exists, you can't just keep doing what you do every other game and expect the same results. Leona is all about aggression and engaging so you play around that, you make it so she can't engage or make it so that if she does you'll come out ahead in the trade.
