I'm a level 75, who for the life of me cannot get past rank 1999 in Arena., and I feel like it should be different

Bastila works best with jedi as they get more protection than other toons. Early attackers like QGJ, Ahsoka, Ezra get a survivability boost so you can focus them on attack.
Second, you're not at max level yet, so certain teams and characters currently seem way overpowered. Phoenix and Unmasked Kylo are both ridiculously difficult to kill early on - I remember stalling out on a lot of my Galactic Wars because I just couldn't kill Phoenix teams. Later on, Phoenix will be a joke to any decent team comp and KRU, while still tough, won't seem totally invincible like he does now.
Easiest and most reusable would be Ezra, Kanan and probably Ahsoka.
Ezra and Kanan give you 2/5 of the Phoenix squad you'll want for Palpatine & Thrawn events and Ahsoka has a decent ship.
Five Jedi will allow you to unlock GM Yoda next time his event comes around.
The team this person is currently running would still be bad at G12 and 7 starred. The lack of appropriate teammates is far more of an issue than gear.
