What's the best counter for mass Mutalisks and Corruptors?
I'm playing Terran at the moment, but I guess this question should concentrate the answers for Protoss and Zerg as well.

Best Answer
There is no unit that will magically let you beat a Zerg air mix, even Thors fall to mass Muta with a little micro. Instead let's break down what there is and discuss possibilities:
One of the things you need to ask yourself is: Is he Corruptor heavy or Muta heavy? This question will influence the result. If he's Corruptor heavy you're going to want more of a ground response. If he's Muta heavy, you're going to want more of an air response. I'll break down units for you based on this decision.
Corruptor Heavy
This is usually an indication he's going Broodlords, so its not a bad idea to build some extra Thor/Phoenix/Corruptor
Muta Heavy
Against a Muta heavy force you're going to have more success with air to air as every air to air unit stomps on Muta (and breaks even with Corruptors). You're going to want to back this up with a mineral heavy ground force (Queen/Marine/Stalker).
Remember, if you see Muta/Corruptor you need to think "How can I use what I have?" NOT "What should I build?"
