It's not just a matter of being good at it, they specialise to the extent of having specific magic for the purpose. Therefore, Vinga herself must have been notably good at it, which I would take to mean (there being no myths to base a clearer picture on) she fought them often. I agree they wouldn't fly at one another rabidly, but I just can't see a Vingan Trollkin... the initiation rites (not to mention the 'unofficial' initiation ceremonies dreamed up by the other Vingans) would be notably dangerous!
