Rey tier 7 event

Like many people I got rey in the lightspeed, since then I have tried about 6 times to get the material to get her ultimate, I've followed a ton of different guides and strategies, and been unable to come close to getting this event. Anyone have any ideas if they majorly buffed this event?

Screenshot your Rey stats and mods, let people take a look and maybe they can help. Also the team you are using could be the problem. It’s a difficult tier, you need excellent mods with solid strategy. I couldn’t win consistently until I took Rey to R8. BitDynasty was the best guide I found.
Okay, there are only 6 tiers. I tried the hardest tier and went in with Rey + RHBros, Holdo, and OG Finn. Lost RH Finn to a counter on RHF's first move. Brutal, but I won then level on that first try without reading any guides or even the event info or doing an re/modding.
I'm not saying it's easy. I got a little lucky with a well-timed SLKR swipe reducing Holdo to yellow health which allowed me one more whirlwind than I thought I was going to get. Even so I beat it first try so it can't be THAT hard.
I'd say that there's something going on there, but it's not a recent increase in difficulty.
Edit: 5-1 now
3-2 isn’t a great success rate to encourage others to follow your strategy, tbh. 60% would be unacceptable for me, at least. Most people want 100% or upwards of 80%.
While I never did invest much in the way of speed mods towards bb-8, so maybe the event would be radically different if mine was much faster, I don’t see a lot of value in BB-8 in the ultimate event. Really the only debuff(s) you’re applying to SLKR with that squad would be daze via Poe, 3 dots via Poe, and healing immunity via JTR, which can’t be resisted, so tenacity down isn’t really necessary. Poe should have high potency anyways.
Illuminated destiny’s a fine ability, but it takes several turns to be able to use it. I’d argue by the time you use it, you don’t really need it. You’ll have either succeeded or failed by this time (again reiterating that if a mega-fast BB-8 invalidates this, okay, but I’d still prefer Holdo for her heal and ability to give Rey at least one additional sudden whirlwind to defeat SLKR before siphon ramps up)
As I said above, these two defeats I had were because I used the wrong team and scheme, when I stopped to watch a proper tutorial, I didn't lose, understand?
Actually if not I’m not mistaken they did buff it waaay back, where the removal of TM gives FO with SLKR health and protection, originally it did not have this Rey was like my 4th GL and watched an old tutorial where they removed TM
I gave my Rey R8 before the final tier. You don't actually need it but she deserves it.
I used rey (obv) rhp rhf bb8 c3p0.
Speed for most.
Use lifeblood on finn
Keep hitting kylo
Use lifeblood around if you feel going to lose someone otherwise hit kylo
Rey using lifeblood will unlock her specia
Keep rhf and rhp alive, bb8 supports c3p0 on kylo
But with that comp, it can be done as low as g11 on Rey (but it takes a looooong time on lower gear levels).
As for the difficulty of the event, the only thing is the nerf to Whirlwind below r7.
