PlayXP was a major community site for Warcraft III in Korea. After being somewhat inactive for a period, it has come back in force for Starcraft II.
PlayXP and Gameplex are going to hold a the first Blizzard approved SC II Beta tournament in Korea. It will be a weekly tournament, with 64 or 128 players competing each week. It begins this Saturday, March 6th with a small invitational tournament between top ladder players in Korea.
UPDATE - The tournament was completed, and the replays are up!
