Maybe post your build so people can help you reach whatever your goal is. you ought to be able to at least hit the defense softcap as an ice/ice tank, and then hitpoint cap.

also as a note, incarnate powers have almost trivialized all of the old tfs, even STF and LRSF are cake walks nowadays (avg time to run LRSF is 40 min)

That might still happen on some servers, everyone looks at the team and decides they can't do enough to keep an Icetanker alive. You can be beyond that, but getting people to trust you is another thing. A few select Icetankers could probably do it with 6 blappers and oh a 7th blapper whilst some people will require this that and the other with their profound wisdom. Still somethings are a team effort and anything can be done with a good selection of people and no matter how good someone is with a team of not so good the collective wisdom lowers to beneath whats needed.|

What type of person are you?
Incarnating makes much of the old game simpler now, people who'd normally make mistakes compromising/costing themselves or other people
in the team or a whole TF can now get away with those mistakes, many might be oblivious to the mistakes, most don't look back to contemplate them. Incarnating will trivialize much.
TL : DR version; yes completion of any TF is plausible with any team make up.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
It is definitely possible and there are a few different ways to go about it.
1) obviously you could have a buff/debuff heavy team. Buff you and debuff (toggle debuffs, anyway) LR. CE can hold aggro by itself as long as you don't try to kite him.
2) same as above, just use inspirations if buffs are in short supply.
3) hover/taunt. This requires hover, fly, or a jet pack, as well as Taunt with ~100ft range. This is by far the safest method as you won't ever get attacked unless you hover in a bit too close.
You could potentially mix 1/2 with 3 and hop around the area spamming taunt.
but if you're determined to go toe to toe with LR, then #2 will probably be how you'd want to go. stock up on large purples, oranges, and greens. Keep CE on LR and spam taunt and EA on him. After that... hope your team can kill the towers quickly.

It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

I don't do much villainy, I probably tried this SF a total of two to four times. I'll look into it though.

hey guys, been out of the loop for quite some time now. Played for roughly 5 1/2 years prior to leaving the game, so I have some questions about any changes.
