What the Russians think of American teams.

The actual article is very different. The "dark horses" comment is actually positive and means "unexpected winner". Basically that sentence says that all three american teams which won their divisions weren't well known before the competition (except Angels of Death). Then the paragraph about Red Sky and Iron Wolves simply says that they didn't start very well at first but in Moscow will have the chance to prove they can do better. Last paragraph then just says that the competition on the Russian servers is vastly bigger with over 500 teams participating.
So I'm sorry but you are seeing things which aren't there. Maybe you want them to be there but they aren't.
