League has become very expensive
Event pass after event pass
Emotes, borders, chromas, prestige, hextech..
It's getting to be alot to keep up these days.
I miss the days where all I had to worry about was buying the occasional $20 legendary skin

Being broke has its benefits sometimes. Can't spend what you don't have :^)
League is a free game, even though sometimes all the cosmetics makes it feel otherwise =P
only 1 or 2 skins for each champ i like anyway so its pretty cheap to bad 3 of my fav skins are fucking gemstones
Who cares about those things ?
Personally I own no skins for the champions I main, and I'm completely fine with icons and emotes I get randomly. The only thing I care about in a free game is whether I can play it the way I want for free or cheap. In LoL, it means I only care about being able to play the champions I like. And I find that the event passes give very good value if playing 3 games a day and spending all the tokens on champion shard.
So for me, as a player who started 2 months ago, LoL is a pretty cheap game, especially considering how long it's been out (which means I expected to have to spend a lot to "catch up"). And for the rest I'm just to offput by the insane price of skins and the predatory loot boxes to even consider a purchase, so I don't feel any pressure to buy.
The real question here is why you would want to pay real money for the things you mentioned.
