She is supposed to be it.

Leona is suppose to take out or atleast make them leave with barely any health. If you don't give her some damage,she will down right be on the bad side of the trade. She doesn't have poke. She has no efficent wave clear. She is melee. Her stun is tied to her range until 5. Her E is cancel-able. She has no escape. She has no defence after her 6 seconds. Her Ms is low. Her ability to protect her carry directly is non-existant while indirectly,she might CC but then she loses her form of engage. She has no sustain. Her R can be hard to hit when not in a team fight and finally,she is not going to be much of a help once behind.

The reason she is so good in solo queue is because she is the epiphany of kill pressure. So once she goes in,boom. They all go in. And obviously,since Leona is suppose to excel at this,she wins most trades,making people wonder about how power she is.

On the other hand,smarter players simply take a knock up/back. Stop her at her E. And then continue to poke her carry while she tries to play catch up with that horrid ms.
