However, there's very few who actually are close to max skills and all that in that list. Phoenix Odin is the only one that stuck out to me, but I'm sure there's a few more candidates for next trimmer if you looked.
Hmm.. I still do think that 5k castle wars games is a bit much. Maybe 1k or so would be fine but 5k sounds a bit ridiculous. Even if you enjoy it, that's alot of hours spent in the game.
5k castle wars games isn't just a random amount of games they just threw in there for the hell of it, there's actually a "Cwars Professional" cape that requires 5000 games to purchase. Seeing as this was added before the completionist cape...it's more than fair that it's a requirement. A crazy one, but fair nonetheless.
I had no idea there was a cwars cape, I need to check out the rewards since they updated it. The problem I find with the insane amount of castle wars games needed now is the fact that alot of maxed players have started afking there just to try and reach the requirements:

Someone else posted a screenshot in the HLF forums showing 15 maxed playres just standing there. If there was a lower requirement then I think more people would play the game for fun rather than just standing there. I know they won't be changing the requirements now, but expect to see alot of people afking at castle wars now. Even Castle Wars (the only guy to have a trim completionist cape) afk'd some of his games.
