The combo is solid but it has some weaknesses that can be made to work against it. I've found that knocking Poe out first typically makes things easier, but it all depends on how the other guy flies.
Anyone else flying Poe and Super Dash?
Tried Poe and Lando a couple of days ago, and it worked really well. At PS7 with a large base he's a decent ace blocker, and giving Poe a focus before he does is tallon roll was more powerful than I expected it to be. Spent the last few points on a Prototype, but I think I'll replace that with a Bandit to make room for PTL on Lando.
Either that or just instantly concede whenever I get matched against kanan super dash. Yeah, I feed you a free win but you'll be deprived of a game and I can just leave the FLGS and get food and play next round. "That's blatantly ******* broken and my list autoloses to it, it's the Phantom all over again. I concede, I'm going to get food."
Super Dash is, and probably always will be, a lower skill, top-tier ship. But it's a huge points sink, and in a timed, 60 minute game, it's 5 shields away from dropping a huge splodge of MOV. If you have a list which has an enormous, glaring weakness to one of the top lists in the meta, then I'd say it's time to change your list. Beating a Super Dash + Corran/Poe list 100-0 is always going to be frustrating, but scraping a win is normally eminently possible and its weakness lies there.

If only Poe was not a super-tough nut he is...
I played in a winter tournament yesterday with Super Dash (minus Kyle replaced by Intel Agent) and my 2 Rookie's with R2's and IA.
I came 4th out of 23 players which I'm extremely pleased with!
There was a very good mix of lists, no quad TLT which was nice.
I ended with 4 wins and 1 loss for the day, the list that beat me was regen Poe and Miranda with a Stresshog. With practice (and some very good rolls) I think I could take it though.
IA was extremely helpful, giving my X's another round of shooting which was very important. Intel Agent was useless and I'll be dropping it for either Nien Numb or to go for initiative.
