The Splatoon 3 Inkspedition: Um'ami Ruins

Um'ami Ruins was a map that was teased in the Splatoon 3 direct in August and was later released as a part of Splatoon 3's Fresh Season. The map itself is an excavation site in the middle of a desert. There's a huge Egyptian-style temple in the background and various artifacts scattered around the map. In this Inkspedition, we'll take a closer look at Um'ami Ruins and its layout and see if it's one of the best Splatoon 3 maps. What other Splatoon maps would you want to see in the next Inkspedition?

What map would you like the host of the inkspedition to take a look at next? Let me know right here in the comments! 😉

Would love to see hagglefish please!

[@poyomaster3858]

the lore and acting of these skits are simply incredible

[@p0f1m]

I wasn’t expecting a whole lore drop in a silly splatoon video lmao

[@pie5362]

Ikr

[@Alphastar716]

Playing 5 characters at the same time can be difficult even though I don't wildly change my voice, so I'm glad you enjoyed it. x)

[@zeatehkcasualaccount]

if splatubing ever goes under you have a solid chance at writing fanfiction. in all seriousness your video series might end up being a catagory 7 autism event for me

[@Alphastar716]

My ideas are kinda restricted by what I can do in game but I have some interesting things planned. 😅

[@SirNerdTheThird5143]

I am all for a ACU(Alphastar Cinematic Universe)

[@VulcanW]

I'm glad the host did Um'ami Ruins. This is one of the maps that I wanted the host to do the most so I'm happy.

[@Alphastar716]

Very valid opinion! Um'ami is the best of the S shaped maps we have so far. 😇

[@VulcanW]

@@Alphastar716 Ya gotta love Tetris!

[@Radical_SPL]

INKSPEDITION!!!!!!

[@ItsOreo27]

I didn’t expect so much Billy lore. It was interesting! As a charger main, using chargers on that map is amazing! Bloodshed 😄 But any back line weapon is a good one for that map lol. Amazing video, Alpha! 💕🐙

[@Alphastar716]

Most maps in the game are good for your charger so you're eating good x)

[@KingPete_]

I love how we just ruin ancient artifacts for fun in this game

[@Alphastar716]

Yep, and the inklings and octolings could care less while doing it haha!

[@BunnyShroomi]

I love the aesthetics of Umami, as much I hate playing on it, it’s very pretty. And the nighttime version makes it look even better! (Love the lore of the OCs btw)

[@Hi.iExist]

The poor jelly tho 😭 (and also we need more Billy lore thank you for what you gave us)

[@Alphastar716]

Even though his series is over, he'll still be sprinkled around the channel every now and again.

[@jaxxenowo9720]

YUH MY BOIIII MORE LORE? SCRUMPTIOUS

[@TopazTiger975]

I sure wasn't expecting this much lore to be dropped on us, but I'm not complaining! 👀 As for Um'ami ruins, I've actually never noticed the hieroglyphics until now. I think Hagglefish Market could be a nice option for the Inkspedition. I haven't seen too many people talk about it. Awesome video Alpha! 🐯

[@Alphastar716]

I- I mean the Host of the Inkspedition will definitely need to look into Hagglefish more. There's probably a couple of little details to see there, too.

[@nanitheboilmao]

oh i absolutely love this character building and i am so excited to see where it goes in the future!

[@Alphastar716]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@yinyangyt8749]

This was very funny Alpha. I like this map a ton. Also, I like how Billie was so excited to see everything in the ruins

[@Alphastar716]

I don't blame him. The hieroglyphics and the temple in the background look awesome!

[@Lincdup]

The inquisitive guy is probably very pissed that the Salmonids decided their monthly crusade would take place in Dry Dry Ruins. I can’t image the ancient tabloids enjoy being pissed on by a eldritch snake wearing a potato sack.

[@djcalvin15]

THE GRIZZCO SOUND??! THE STAR??? THE LORE IS BOOMING AGHHH

[@Alphastar716]

There are plenty of things for you to look into. 👀

[@MAI_the_OCTO]

Love these types of videos because I don't really notice the smaller details when playing these maps! It's really nice to see the effort Alphastar puts into videos like these :) (and others ofc! The videos made on this channel are a solid 10/10)

[@Alphastar716]

A lot of people (myself included) spend most of their time covering up the cute designs in paint, so it's nice to put them under a spotlight during Inkspeditions. 😅

[@j.corbygaming]

Always love these skit videos. Keep it up!

[@Alphastar716]

I will, glad you enjoyed!

[@3p1c_studios]

Loved this episode of inkspedition lol! Keep it up alpha

[@davidtull452]

I love how there is lore in these now

[@ayzolt404]

HOL’ UP WE GETTING BILLY LORE WHAT-

[@Tori_Nushi]

lore was amazing can't wait for the next one

[@coastalsunset]

Was not expecting lore but we you go that's so cool honestly, already invested

[@TheBetterCrustacean]

This lore is spicer than your average dualies squelchers enthusiast.

[@pipiPepo]

Woah, more Billy lore! Also, fun fact about Um'ami ruins: I'm pretty sure that the statue moves during splatfests. I saw a video about it, but it might have been fake. Not sure

[@Alphastar716]

The game doesn't have the option to go into recon during the night, so we couldn't see it. But it appears during splatfest that I'll have to take a look!

[@hahani17]

Delicious lore, coming from the Um'ami Ruins, how fitting

[@Alphastar716]

No better place to discuss the past 👀

[@chebas_]

i still can't believe there's lore

[@MagicalGirlFia]

Ngl I absolutely adore that this silly little series has not just reoccurring characters but LORE

[@Cloudy_713]

billy lore?!? :O great video alpha!!

[@bravegoppy8008]

Alpha giving lore be like: I am GOD, and I made- um picked up these inklings from the hard beginnings( definitely didn't make them up)

[@Zaansemayo]

Love this lore vid

[@PASIFX]

Man the fact there are like multiple character with good personality is awesome

[@Alphastar716]

I try to give each one a very distinct personality to contrast with the others x)

[@bananaflavoreddeodorantstick]

I keep hearing “you mommy ruins” instead of “um’ami ruins” 😭

[@fluffywhompus]

Lore 😳

[@yourlocalgrandma1]

Nintendo would make a single sponge as a map wouldn't they...

[@Alphastar716]

The way the map design works, I wouldn't be surprised x)

[@da_pwo]

Gee the lore is getting INTENSE

[@ankkitha]

I’d love to hear you talk about Mahi-Mahi! All I know its gonna be a flurry of emotions especially for splatoon 1 veterans! And I’ve only started from splatoon 2! 😂BTW keep up the good work❤❤️👍 P.S Fresh sweet lore to adore!

[@Alphastar716]

Someone will have to wrestle the Host of the Inkspedition to do it but it's possible LOL!

[@ankkitha]

@@Alphastar716 Honestly, I can see why splatoon 1 veterans are so deflated by it. Especially you tho.😅

[@malcomshorts345]

I love Billy content

[@rosieproductions5406]

I’m so happy to see Billy again! I love him!

[@Alphastar716]

Billy's happy to peek in every now and again!

Better late than never, there weren't too many episodes back in Splatoon 2, but I wanna start shooting for 1 Inkspedition a month in Splatoon 3.

Low key crying from the lore

[@Alphastar716]

Imo, Rapid Pro is still a pretty classy weapon!

[@Style_224]

I thought it said inspection 😂

[@Alphastar716]

No, just Inkspedition. It's a Splatoon pun on the word expedition.

[@fate7418]

Huh… so as Alpha explained before Billy was a result of being near the TarTar ooze stuff (gonna be honest idk what it’s called) and it’s genetically modified his DNA to clone himself… or perhaps certain parts… we now know the host of the Inkspedition did the same so… perhaps that’s the version of Alpha that can get overconfident and controlling at times… while Billy is the part of Alpha that see’s the light and happiness in every situation! It won’t be long till Alpha slips tho… WHY AM I SO INVESTED IN THIS LORE ALPHA?! I NEED TO KNOW 😂😂😂

[@only8035]

i ate some of the ancient artifacts

Stone tablets doesn't make for the...best diet lol.

Guess what Travis is better than the host lmao The host hasn't really grown on me yet- AND HE SOMEWHAT DOESN'T LIKE BILLY? But I guess that makes him.. unique- what are all the other's names anyway? Or have you not thought of them yet? Also billy lore

[@Alphastar716]

Dave's the other assistant who was talking with Billy. The Host of the Inkspedition and Splatlocke still don't have names.
