I have Tarkin Lead, Vader, TFP, RG, and Storm Trooper. In a arena match earlier, I saw a all Solo (Movie) team. Qira Lead, Young Solo, Vandar Chewy, Enfys, and L3-37. Now the part that threw me off, was that this team was lower in stars and level to my team. So no way it had better gear than me.
That said, it whooped my buttocks hard. I could not even kill L3 who I focus on first at all. So clearly I did something wrong picking targets but with the droid taunting I wanted it gone first. What order should I gone?

Anyway im not that gamiliar with the whole solo team beyond that they have synergy with each other through the prepared mechanic so i cant give the best kill order.
"So no way it had better gear than me." Well, did they, or didn't they? You can tell a character's gear based on the color and detail of the ring around their profile photo. In any case, mods and synergy can easily outweigh stars and gear.
The Solo toons have a lot of protection restore going around, so you might want to bring in characters with healing immunity. Also, since you probably don't have a lot of speed arrows yet, if you have crit avoidance arrows, that can help shut down Qi'ra leadership.
Do you have a swgoh.gg account? It would be helpful to see your roster.

You can tell what gear level a character is by the outline of their picture. Notably, the outline first turns green at gear 2, blue at gear 4, and purple at gear 7. Beyond that it's all in how many bumps or lines there are, which is harder to describe with text alone.
Anyway though, if the team was of similar gear level to you, it may simply be that the synergy of the "prepared" characters (everyone you mentioned but Nest) trumps your fairly basic Empire team. They do have a lot of self-healing - Qi'ra's lead gives them 10% protection recovery whenever they land a critical hit, which could prove nasty for simpler teams like yours. And that's just her lead, some of their other abilities do a lot of additional self-healing, including L3's AoE, if they have their "prepared" buff.
Also, Nest is just really good. So much so that top-end players are running her at 3 stars even now because she helps counter the best team in the game, full Palpatine + Triumvrate Sith.
Single purple ring with quarter lines left and right = G8
Double purple ring = G9
Double purple ring with half lines = G10
Triple purple ring = G11
Gold = G12 and 12+
