I donāt think they are going to nerf Kron. While an amazing card from my experience from playing with the card and against it in diamond he doesnāt seem as crazy as everyone once thought. You at most usually get two uses out of him before he is either dispelled or dealt with. I canāt think of a single game Iāve played this season where someone completely snowballed a game out of control with him.
900 Spirit for a neutral Legend : Kron, Zen'Rui, Spelljammer or another?

the thing is Kron is pretty much viable in everydeck (hes oriented towards midrange & control though) just because he is a big guy, in the middle of mana curve, that gives more mini dudes.
The other examples are more dependant not only of the archetype: Spelljammer is mostly aggro oriented because in those decks, you usually dump your hand easily and she povides not only a body but also draw; and meta dependant: last season ZenRui would have been a midterm to bad option, but as for today, with all the songhai and vet, he becomes a way better card.
So, going back to the poll: given a generic context, a generic card: Kron.
I would say ZenāRui, The BlightSpawned, except even Lantern Fox may be ātoo slowā for Songhai now. =S
So, it will have to be Professor Kronikle, 'cause without 'im, itās quintuply difficult to meet the one Provoke a turn and twice on even turns quota mandated by our red Songhai overlords and still function while transacting with the lesser factions. You need to pressure the red bastahs real hard while keeping up with your mandated Provoke quota. Kronikle is your only chance really.

Well if they donāt nerf him I will be incredibly happy 
Iāve been playing Replace Lyonar with moderate success (white widow RNG carried me to diamond) and Iād hate to lose him.
Unpopular opinion here,but since itās for starters,iād take Unseven over spelljammer. that way you can take advantage of the necroseers youāre probably gonna be using in your early game decks and keep drawing cards a little more while also getting a good value minion out of it(the one to be spawned by unseven).
But iām new,donāt mind me if what i say sounds like a bad idea.
Unseven doesnt see play, specially in higher ranks, he is not only slow but allows the opponent to prepare for whats coming. Also, if you are new, i wouldnt go for specific archetypes legendaries, and i would even say not to go for neutrals: they look like they could fit any deck, and they dont, even being neutral you use them at the most in 3 factions, and faction legendaries are always better. But thats just my personal opinion.
Unfortunately there arent that many great neutral legendaries that work in many decks, and lots of cards that had been called OP before release, proved nothing after it (YEAH RUBY RIFTER, IM LOOKING AT YOU)., or ended up being nerfed somehow ā¦ so
Sphynx or Rook for maximum meme value. To be real though, iād say Kron. You can basically just slam him into any deck with moderate success. Jammers are important if you are fond of aggressive playstyles.
kron. i canāt tell you how many times iāve won or lost a game because i or my opponent couldnāt deal with it for a turn. itās also really funny in a silly replace deck with widows and aethermasters. thereās also no risk because i would be amazed if he doesnāt get nerfed next month
Since i didnāt have rite of the undervault,i had my abyssian decks focus on having lots of dying wish enemies,so i could keep playing agressively without having an empty hand,so unseven worked great,since he wasnāt all that powerful so people didnāt make it a priority to dispel him,that way i could get either a klaxon,reaper,necroseer or void hunter out for free,but that was in silver,wich is why i mention for earlier,but yes,i can see why people would prefer ruby rifter since thatās instant value+ a strong minion.
I guess unseven is more a thing only if you have a deck full of dying wish minions,and in earlier ranks only,so yeah. but since i got rite of the undervault i just instead put consuming rebirth in place of unseven i just summon a vorpal reaver and use it so i can spawn 6 wraithlings + a 7/7 vorpal.
(Once again,iām a newbie,so donāt mind if iām just spewing shit)
kron, because he is always good, there is literally no situation where kron sucks
ZenāRui, because everyone uses Kron, and you gotta be diferent even if you arenāt going for memes (Although Iād certainly build a minion-stealing Vet meme deck if I had more money). Or Ruby Rifter, because it looks cool. Depends on what you are playing.
But seriously, I feel that getting 2 Epics would serve you better.
edit: ops, accudental necro. Please donāt kill me
Youāre kind of missing the point though. Itās not that heās super overpowered. Itās that heās strong enough to literally be placed in every single non-face deck without repercussions. No deck loses out by switching some cards for Kron. No single card should be have that kind of effect.
Like in another on of my thread ?

I think that the comunities opinion of Kron is exagerated, but it still is a great card. Even if dispelled a 4/6 2/2 body is still really good. Against classes that dont have ranged dispel you can play kron defensively behind the front lines to try to generate a few dudes
Another unpopular opinion here: Hollow grovekeeper. This thing always seems to find his mark when I play him. You do not need many of them either. One is already fine for most decks. Maybe two is still reasonable. He is like Zenrui, except I like his stats more and he deals with more impactful cards than Zenrui.
If you are debating between these two, the question is what your decks are weak against more often. Is it Ironcliffe, Kron, zioltas and shieldmaster, or lantern fox? I see Zenrui more as a combo with blindscorch or the 3/2 in Abyssian. I can also see a case of running a number of each of them.
Spelljammer is nice in janky synergy decks that need a density of specific cards. Kron is a nice value proposition, but I think he is also the most replaceable of the bunch. If you are a deck that can replace multiple times in a turn and you also run white widow, then go ahead. If not, then I think this card can be replaced by any other finisher-esque card.
ZenRui wins games.
So good reasons.
Many arguments exposed here.
Such wall of text.

ZenāRui may not look like much due to lacking stats and an effect that only targets a small group of minions that are actually worth targeting. In fact, while I recommended him earlier, I feel that most decks could use Kron better.
But trust me, if you have any way of lowering an enemy minionās attack (Blindscorch works wonders, but Abyss and Magmar also have options), there are few things more pleasurable than stealing it, and it is a huge value swing in your favor, bigger than what Kron could achieve in one turn in a non-replace deck.
So it depends on you favorite factions, as well as the enemy minions you hate the most.
EDIT: Hollow Grovekeeper is also interesting. Most decks run at least 3 Provoke minions, Mech decks have Swords and Magmar love their Warbeasts.
Donāt forget that Hollow Grovekeeper also procs on Mechazor! himselfā¦if you can close the distance.
