I don't see this much anymore, which saddens me. But I also don't see swarms anymore either, which may be why. Big ships rule the table these days, and 2 or 3 ship fleets are most common, and the occasional 4-ship fleet. TIE Fighter swarms just can't do much to a typical TIE Defender or Jumpmaster fleet. (I also don't see Assault Missiles anymore, actually)

So I feel like the 2 points isn't well spent. You have a 50% chance to deal a damage if you catch one ship in the blast (which is easy), or a 75% chance of dealing damage to at least one ship if you catch 2 ships in the blast. Maybe you'll deliver a crit if the targets don't have shields. But the way ships move around obstacles and the table in general, it's not easy to catch 2 or more ships in the blast. Plus if you spend your action focusing or acquiring a target lock for your attack, your expected damage is often better.

Is anyone out there still putting this card to good use?
