Possible solution to Poe.
Instead of trying to kill Poe before he taunts, it's probably better to battle smarter. Obviously a dispel would solve this problem, but Asajj is way too slow and Mace Windu is useless. I think...

I too refuse to jump on the Poe bandwagon and beat him regularly. This is usually a combination of luck, technique I have developed, and lack of team synergy. Many people are just taking random teams and sticking him in there, and while he always increases your chance of losing because he is overpowered, he's only an instant "game over" in the correct setup: high single-target DPS (Leia, FOTP, etc.) On those teams, I lose unless I get very lucky. But the random Poe/Phasma/Sid/GS/Lumi team is very beatable.
My team against him is my basic Arena team: Phasma, Dooku, Daka, Asajj and Luminara. The goal is simple: survive the initial onslaught one way or another, then pick off the enemies one at a time.
If Poe gets his taunt off, I usually have to use Daka to heal because it will take too long to get to Lumi. Then I hope Lumi isn't ability-blocked, and toss her heal. And then the fight really begins.
Asajj, bugs and slowness and all, can turn around any fight with an enemy Poggle or Phasma by turning their team buff into a massive heal for you. I've seen it go up to 6k on each team member. Basically, if the timing works out, you will win. Assuming it isn't resisted.
I have also stripped Poe's taunt using Asajj, though this is rare.
I whittle them down and then hit them with Asajj's AoE as well. I can get three AoEs out of her in a fight if I am lucky and time it well.
In the meantime, use Dooku to tie up their Lumi/JC or take down other targets. Use Daka to stun any dangerous enemy teammates.
You'll lose a lot but it's fun when you win.
I hope they don't change Asajj's debuff to heal only her. That ability is all that justifies her slot given how slow she is.
