EPTThe Millenium player just announced on his stream that he received an invitation to participate next season in the stellar competition that is the GSL Code S.
Stephano is going to leave for Korea within several weeks, right before the start of tournament. However, he has been saying repeatedly that the GSL wasn't his priority, but he stated he might play if his schedule allows him to. In the end, nothing's set in stone yet.
[Stephano's quote from his stream, saying what was just summarized]
If he chose to enter the tournament, Stephano would join NaNiwa in the world elite of Starcraft. The Swede, through brilliant play, secured a spot in Code S for next season, by reaching the quarter-finals of the competition.
T/N: Sorry for my sucky translation skills.

Well, most probably this isn't the first time he got invited. This is merely a marketing thing, as Stephano is likely to accept this time.

As encouraged by figq (page 8, next time just pm me yo), here's the previous announcement by Stephano that he will continue his gaming career for another year. Translation by me.

You probably haven't missed this news that has run rampant on all global forums: Stephano announced that he will prolong his ESPORTS career for a new season of Starcraft 2.
Via twitter, the Millenium player proclaimed his intention to continue his gaming career for the coming year. This decision was unclear due to the fact that Stephano merely put aside his medecine studies, planning to return to the university in september 2012. However, the recent success turned the situation upside down, due to the important tournament wins of the young French.
That's why Stephano will first return to the USA in a few weeks before reentering Korea afterwards to bathe in the Korean players' and coaches' proficiency. We will bring you an interview with Stephano in the coming days to provide you with more details on this great news.
