Veigar doesn't burst people from fog of war.
Veigar has no mobility, not even a pseudo mobility like Zoe's.
Veigar typically needs to stack to become capable of 1shot.
Veigar's ulti requires someone to be somewhat low to execute them. Zoe can 100-0 you with a single spell if she's fed enough and if it's a max range Q.
Veigar's W are delayed right in front of your face so it's very possible to dodge them (though dodging in the cage can be sometimes hard depending on the situation). Zoe's dodging window is less since the delay is played off-screen and off the vision range most of the time, or at least after the first levels in laning phase, and you only see it when the spell is already in your face.
Veigar's CC doesn't last 4.2 seconds in total. Zoe's does with 2.2 seconds of slow and 2 seconds of sleep.
Veigar does not have something as impossible to balance in his kit as Zoe's RNGesus W.

It's not like Veigar doesn't have problems, mostly around his E. But he certainly has it less than Zoe.
