Only muta does fine if you actually magicbox them.
There's no way you can beat that many tanks with a ground composition from Z. If you don't kill him with mutas, you could at least force a much heavier thor count, making roaches more effective.

DRG has crushed this composition numerous times IIRC. He just had... a lot more Mutas than Coca had at the point of that push, so he actually could magic box the Thors successfully.
Yeah, muta works. I think this is what separates Nestea from other Zergs; crisis management. Other zergs really just fall apart and make all the wrong stuff and waste the larva.
I'm sure what went through their head was something like "Thors and hellions, make roaches." And completely missed the siege tanks.
