Jinx is good against Caitlyn due to her ability to shove waves and poke with AoE damage with her rocket launcher, and has good burst with her W and R. It is not too hard to beat a Jinx, but playing aggressively and poking her out will win. If played well, Caitlyn should win this matchup easily.
Yasuo
Yasuo is generally an easy matchup for Caitlyn, despite his wind wall blocking the majority of Caitlyn's abilities. As long as you keep your distance, remember he can only use wind wall one time over a fairly long cooldown. Caitlyn can also easily pop Yasuo's passive shield from a safe distance.
Pyke
Pyke can shrug off poke damage with his passive regeneration. He can easily catch an unsuspecting Caitlyn out with his Q and E combo, usually resulting in a free kill for his team. I would suggest avoiding Pykes as Caitlyn.
Akali
Akali's multiple dashes does not make her easy to deal with. She can easily avoid W traps and E nets. If she lands her E on you later in the game, you're about as good as dead.
LeBlanc
Same deal as Akali. Her dash basically renders your auto range useless, as she can easily W in and full-combo.
Ziggs
Threat level somewhere in between 3 and 4. He outranges with his Q, but if you can dodge and get up close, there isn't much he can do.
Tristana
Tristana is hard countered by Caitlyn. Should be an easy matchup.
Aphelios
Miss Fortune
Fortune is outranged by Caitlyn autos. Fortune R can be dodged using the dash on Caitlyn's E.
Kog'Maw
Blitzcrank
Blitz' hook can be combo'd with W trap for extended CC and a lot more damage. If you see your Blitz hooking someone, try to place a trap directly in front of him to trap the enemy once the hook animation is finished.
Nautilus
Not quite as strong as Blitzcrank synergy, but still very good, for all the same reasons. Nautilus also has a lot of CC and can be combo'd with W traps for longer CC and more damage.
Bard
Bard's synergy comes from his R. Draven is within your R range, but his Thresh is body blocking? To Bard, that's no problem. If Bard can land his R so that it hits all enemies body blocking and leaves the target exposed, it's a free kill.
Sona
One of my personal favorite synergies. Her harass damage and shielding is great for playmaking.
Morgana
Morgana is to Sona like Nautilus is to Blitzcrank. Not quite as strong but still a great all-around pick.
Seraphine
Not a great support for Caitlyn in my experience, but it depends on the Seraphine's skill level (lol).
Lux
Better than Seraphine but worse than Morgana. Good poke damage and good R combos.
Swain
You will end up playing Caitlyn support for a Swain APC.
Brand
If you get a Brand support, just dodge.
Nami
Nami is alright. Still better than Seraphine.
Zyra
Not a bad Synergy, but Zyra works better with hyper-aggressive or poke ADCs. There are better synergies out there.
