I was watching a game on Shakuras Plateau when I spotted two formations that were interesting. It's kind of like when you look at the clouds, and your mind tries to make sense of the image as best it can, so you end up relating it to things you know. So anyway these are the two I found, and was curious if anyone else spotted any other unique formations on the minimap in either SC1 or SC2.

In this one it looks like a Gameboy character, with parted hair, glasses and a set of wings, kind of made me lol.

This one was really interesting. To me, this reminds me of Blackbeard portrayed in Pirates of the Caribbean, the mineral patches below the xel,nega look like his hat, whilst the bottom ones are his beard.

Thought it was interesting when i seen it, figured I'd share and see if anyone else has spotted some unique ones, or sees something else in these two images.

Yea, for some reason I had Taldarim in my head when writing this, it is shakuras, updated OP to change that. Keep in mind the images are enlarged, the parts circled are the top middle and bottom middle of the map.

We used to have a very pleasant smiley face on Shakuras Plateau, but blizzard, intent on stripping eSports of all it's respectable and honorable qualities, removed it.

the first one looks like he's supsonning. the 2nd looks like he's doing a less enthusiastic supson but his toes are pointing upwards and outwards for some reason
