Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.
Congrats to everyone who was on this run! For those who want more, or those who didn't get a chance to take part in this, I am running one on Tuesday the 12th at 8pm, the thread is somewhere here in the Victory listings.
Again, very good job, wondering if anyone can tell me what you feel the most important tactic(s) was/were which won the badge ? Having attempted this twice previously, any help is appreciated.
I think the key was preparation. We were an entirely +3 league with all Longbow/Cimeroran lores, plentiful Ultimates, several team Acc/Dam inspirations, large individual damage inspirations, slotted Diamagnetic or proc interfaces, Ageless/Rebirth Destiny powers and slotted Hybrids.
We also practiced good tactics, most people moving clear for the Air Crackles phase, but I think it was the strict entrance requirements that really won the day for us.

Lots of debuffs (especially -Regen, so ask everyone to at least TRY for a Longbow Cataphract Lore pet, which are T3/T4 Core options), 3-4 Ultimate inspirations each run to combat the effects of "the purple patch," and a bunch of +Damage. Hold onto the Lore pets until he's down to 30% health, and make sure to keep Ultimates active every they drop (IIRC, they last 2 min each).|

Also, make sure people actually MOVE when Tyrant is about to fire his lightning AoE. Pets can't get hurt by it, so they're fine mobbing him... but a lightning blast will take down a player in just a few seconds. Ranged fighters and debuffers should be able to continue spamming attacks, but the lightning fields do unfortunately create a window where melee fighters have little they can participate.
Finally, it never hurts to dump a couple Team Insps if it's something you're invested in. Reds or yellow/reds are very helpful, but purples, oranges and purple/oranges can't hurt either.
Oh, another weird trick I almost forgot about... somebody found out tonight that using Poison Trap on Tyrant would occasionally make him vomit (as it's supposed to), but with a little lucky timing, it'll interrupt his lighting field attack.

MP also ran a standard run for practice right before the Really Hard Way run, just to get everybody warmed up and used to dodging the lightning.

I'd have to second this. The league was put together with strict entrance requirements, and therefore had people seriously invested in the ultimate goal. Folks (myself included) happily burned salvage to build Longbow Core pets, and burned astrals to purchase super inspirations. I can't see this badge being attainable by a run-of-the-mill PuG.

I agree a run of the mill pug couldn't do this (considering this is almost certainly the most difficult badge to achieve in the game at the moment), although I would say that just entrance requirements isn't enough, for both runs I have enforced entrance requirements very similar to those of this run, and we had no luck. I think you folks just give you're own skill too little credit, as it does play a large factor in this badge (dodging of the lightning etc). In any case, I thank you for the responses, and I will definitely see if anyone who joins has some team inspirations to share, on top of the stuff I already asked them to bring.
i still think the funniest thing i learned from doing this is traps poison trap causing tyrant to vomit and interrupting his lightning attack lol

I haven't seen it used on Tyrant, but my guess is that MM Poison's Noxious Gas would also have a chance to trigger this. I know it works on Marauder in Lambda.
