    We get mineral heavy....we lose larva making ol's, but think of how most the time those big blimps just sit in your base instead of scouting while spreading creep.

    Build more Hatcheries! Best way of burning off excess Minerals, and gets you a tonne more lava as well.

    As Andro says, hatches should be the first things to consider. I like to keep bases+1 number of them but I might change that to +2. The second things to consider is planting crawlers at your bases. A good starting point is 2 spines + 1 spore per base if you are worried about drops and 3/4 spines at crucial paths if you're not.

    I agree. If you have excess minerals, drop a ton of spine crawlers. It's a great way to slow down the protoss death ball while you re-cooperate your army.
