Sudden Attack Zero Point Folk Village — Team Deathmatch Guide
Dev Note #7's Korean Folk Village CQB arena — lane control, spawn flips, and aim warm-up before bomb defusal.
Folk Village — also referenced as Korean Folk Village in Nexon marketing — is the Team Deathmatch map showcased in Dev Note #7 alongside bomb defusal layout Metro. It sits in SAZ’s two-map TDM pool with sibling arena Warehouse, giving players a close-quarters frag box to learn recoil, test weapon parts, and warm up before Bomb Defusal queues on Metro, City Cat, and the other defusal layouts on Bomb Defusal Maps.
Pre-Season (live since July 30, 2026) keeps Folk Village in the live rotation across all seven PvP maps documented on the Maps hub. This guide covers lane habits, spawn awareness, and how Folk Village skills transfer to site entries on bomb maps.
Why Folk Village matters
Team Deathmatch strips objectives down to pure elimination. Folk Village compresses SAZ’s fast time-to-kill into repeatable duels:
- You die often — that is the point. Each respawn teaches spawn timing and pre-aim lines.
- P90 and SMG builds from Dev Note #7 footage thrive in Folk Village’s tight corridors.
- Bot TDM on Folk Village is the lowest-pressure way to validate Loadout Planner builds before spending SP on the Black Market.
Pair warm-ups here with Team Deathmatch Guide for mode rules and Practice & Bots for graduation timing.
Map layout — three-lane CQB archetype
Dev Note #7 shows Folk Village as a close-quarters layout with fast trades. Expect familiar TDM structure:
- Left lane — Narrow corridor favoring SMGs and shotguns. Pre-aim head height at the first corner; do not wide-swing into multiple unknown angles.
- Mid lane — Highest traffic. Control mid to spawn-trap enemies on one side, but never stand still — SAZ’s TTK means holding one angle too long invites off-angle clears from respawns.
- Right lane — Often slightly longer sightlines than left. Rifles and precision secondaries shine here if you jiggle peek instead of crouch-spamming.
Spawn flip awareness: When your team dominates one lane, enemy spawns may shift pressure to the opposite side. Listen for footsteps and rotate before you get pinched between two respawn waves.
Positioning fundamentals
| Concept | What to do on Folk Village |
|---|---|
| Pre-aim | Crosshair at head level on common peek corners |
| Trade spacing | Stay close enough to refrag teammates in mid |
| Disengage | After one kill, reposition — do not reload in open |
| Sound | Shift-walk before flanking a camping lane |
| Build test | Match parts to lane range in the Loadout Planner |
Weapon picks for Folk Village
Folk Village rewards high-mobility primaries:
- P90 — Dev Note #7 showcase SMG; large magazine for mid-lane snowballs — see Best Loadouts.
- MP5-class SMG — Budget flex before P90 parts mature.
- Shotgun — Niche off-angle farming in left-lane door slices.
- SCAR rifle — Viable on right lane if you avoid left-lane death balls.

Folk Village vs Warehouse
Both TDM maps specialize in CQB, but community footage suggests different flow:
| Factor | Folk Village | Warehouse |
|---|---|---|
| Theme | Korean Folk Village aesthetic | Industrial warehouse CQB |
| Dev Note status | Showcased in #7 | Confirmed at CBT alongside Folk Village |
| Layout feel | Three-lane mid control | Ring / loop CQB (see Warehouse guide) |
| Warm-up use | Default TDM warm-up | Alternate when Folk queues are stale |
Rotate between both maps so spawn timing knowledge stays fresh — see TDM Maps.
Translating Folk Village skill to Bomb Defusal
TDM aim does not automatically win bomb rounds, but Folk Village mastery transfers directly:
- Site entries on interior bomb maps like 3rd Supply Base mirror Folk Village door clears.
- Retake timing uses the same trade-chain logic as mid-lane refrags.
- Economy discipline is the gap — TDM ignores round loss; bomb mode does not. Read Bomb Defusal Guide before forcing expensive builds every round.
Warm up 10–15 minutes on Folk Village, then queue bomb with a loadout you validated in live duels on Metro or City Cat.
Recommended warm-up routine
- 5 min bot TDM on Folk Village — learn spawn locations without pressure.
- 10 min live TDM — focus on one lane per life; track first-bullet accuracy over K/D.
- Build check — note which parts felt sluggish in CQB.
- Bomb queue — apply pre-aim lines to Bomb Defusal Maps.
Characters and cosmetics in TDM
All 10 launch characters are viable on Folk Village because they do not grant combat abilities — only silhouette and style. Pick operators you can spot quickly in chaotic lanes. See Characters, Judith Hawk, and Tier List — Characters.
