Yeah it blows my mind how much I've spent on league supporter kits as well. Not sure if it is because I enjoy the game or I respect the business model.
I'm not against battle passes, but there are plenty of examples of how they fall under the predatory monetization category. Not selling power is hardly a justification that they aren't unethical.
I realized I had overdone it when two weeks in they were going to send me a free hoodie shipped from a different continent.
At least I ran out of things to buy there.
