Protecting the Mineral Lines (Losing too many workers)

You worked so hard to produce your workers, now let’s work on protecting them! As a zerg player the best ways to defend your mineral line is with queens, spores and spines. Make sure that as you progress into the mid and late game that you have built a spore and spine at every base. Doing so will make it so you will have enough time to run your army back and protect the workers.
