How did this small state-large state compromise guard against tyranny?

The compromise between the New Jersey Plan and the Virginia Plan called the Connecticut Compromise or the Great Compromise. Was a compromise over the composition of the national legislature to include provisions to support the wishes of the large states such as Virginia and also the small states such as New Jersey. This was achieved through the creation of a bicameral legislature where representation was in one house based on population and the other it was fixed.
