Somewhere over on the bnet forums, there was some talk on how Void Rays are way too strong.
Well, there was a link to this "combat simulator":

Basically, you choose an attacking unit and a defender, how many of them and (or not) some upgrades.
Then you "fight"...
Anyway, I tried it out.
8 Vikings can be beaten by 4 Void Rays or 8 Corruptors.
8 Corruptors can be beaten by 9 Vikings or 3 Void Rays.
8 Void Rays can be beaten by 20 Corruptors or 24 Vikings.
Interesting theory.
My personal experience does not agree however.
As Zerg (what else? ), Void Rays are only ever a problem if I don't have anything that can shoot air...
And, well, Vikings in large numbers are simply "gg". Impossible to take those out of the sky.
No idea where this "Void Rays are too strong" is coming from, but you may have some different experience?
