Here's some general counters to strategies often employed. VERY general, and alot depends on your ability to use the units (aka micro). This is by no means a be-all-end-all. OH BTW: EMP to counter toss is completely unfeasible, don't say it, unless they go mass arch or temp or something stupid. Vessel is more or less a tvz weapon.

+ Marine + Medic
- Hydra/lurk (queen + bl if tanks support; +1 mutas also work en masse)
- Templar/speedlot

+ 2 fac vult
- any zerg anything except drone
- goon

+ metal
- Muta/ling
- goon (for vult/mine), obs (for mine), speedlot (for tank)

+ terran air
- if your enemy goes air...you suck if you lose

+ mass speedlot
- Hydra/Lurk
- vult + mine, some tank

+ speedlot + temp
- Hydra/Lurk, muta (snipe temp), devourer in case of mass 'sairing
- vult + mine, some tank

+ dt rush
- detectors (ahaha)

+ mass goon
- any zerg unit
- tank

+ toss air
- if you lose to this you deserve it

+ hydra/lurk
- goli, tank, vessel + irradiate
- temp, speedlot, obs

+ muta/ling
- marine, medic
- speedlot, sair

+ hydra/ling
- marine, medic, tank
- speedlot, temp, arch

+ ultra/ling + darkswarm
- haha; bat, medic, tank, vessel + irradiate (terran gets owned)
- arch, temp, speedlot

+ zerg air
- marine, medic (unless mass guard or +1 muta), wraith + cloak (more like you lose as ran)
- scout (haha yeah right), 'sair (micro around devs), temp, arch (ff on mutas)

I would just get the SC strategy guide. It has all the unit counters and stats etc.

Eh, toss air isn't useless. Carriers are the status quo answer for the terran tank push.

2port wraith is killer to a zerg who isnt expecting it.
