i keep seeing that people say talon's damage is aoe as opposed to zed.

Talon: Q - single target W - aoe E - single target, no damage R - Aoe

Zed: Q - Aoe W - ground targeted, serves as a second source for your skills E - AoE R - single target.

So basically both have 2 aoe skills, 1 non-damage skill, 1 single target skill.

The only reason you'd say talon is "especially aoe" is because his ult has a big blow-up range, but if you consider zed's not so straight forward shadow duplication of his skills, he can affect about the same area, if not a bigger one. It's just easy to miss this because the shape of his aoe is random, depending on his and his shadow's positions, and his aiming.
