There are the various Myoko clones; they're the only ones I can think of.

Gorizia is a premium heavy cruiser on T7. 

Of course - I'd forgotten about  her...

Which are event walled to Arpeggio collab reruns, while two "Dragon" Myokos drop in and out of the shop seemingly at random

I have checked the premium shop and armoury. But I can't find Gorizia. So they pulled her out? No idea. Cause I remember that she was in the armoury for some time....

Really no idea especially with Gorizia.

Nah - as others have alluded to, things like this come and go - apparently - at random.

 

It probably doesn't help that T7 isn't in a great spot at the moment (outside of Narai): you don't generally get the concealment mod and more often than not get uptiered. This makes this kind of thing a harder sell...

Why not go for Tier 8? It's a safer bet in the current meta and also has a vast array of heavies that can hold their own in high tiers. Wichita, Prinz E, and Atago are all good cruisers.

i'm waiting for congress to see how it turns out, if it's not good i'll probably buy atago or pyotr bagration

i'm also interested in carnot and agir for tier 9, i wish i could still get alska though

but right now at tier 7 there's just indianapolis :(

Between Indy and Atlanta I would pick up the latter ALWAYS! It’s way more fun to play and one of the best in ranked (bronze league)

 Many would agree that Atago is like a beta version of Zao but they're somewhat obsolete now. Unfortunately, they don't have any gimmicks up their sleeve to protect their squishy long hull from melting. IJN guns are still great though!

Well, Atago is not in her prime anymore but Prinz is still tanky and has decent AP pen dmg ...at least among tier 8, that is.  As an added bonus, Prinz also has two torp tubes per side with good firing arcs so it's a lot more comfortable to use than the ones on Yoshino that forces you to show full broadside

Hmm, Atago, Prinz Eugen, Bagration - the all have strong guns, torpedoes and - very important thing for cruisers - repair party. Yes, they lack of radar, they have - weak concealment (Eugen), or large turning circle radius (Bagration), or long guns reload (Atago), but... maybe they are old but gold :-)

There will be a new US Tier VIII CA Premium (Rochester) incoming soon. She's an improved Baltimore, and should be a good ship. But Tier VII is a bit devoid of good premium cruisers.

Just get Atago at T8. Oldest and strongest T8 premium cruiser IMO.

 

Also a fun ship to play.

It's got a different set of consumables - it has all of DFAA, Hydro and Radar, testing version has fewer charges than Baltimore but better AA, otherwise it's pretty similar. Should be a decent ship and worth buying if you want to try the US cruiser lines. Wichita is also very good (and more versatile, can be run as a cap CA with radar as she's very stealthy,  or as a long range HE spammer with Spotter) but has lighter shells, so not quite as much punch.
