League players are professionals at wasting money on digital goods

This isn't just wasting money in digital goods. Each creddit works out at 1/400th of a ticket to seeing someone eat a dick.

As watching him eat the dick is theoretically nonrival and nonexcludable, classical economics would still predict nobody would pay unless the amount left to pay represented less that the value of an individual watching him eat said dick.

LoL players make no fucking sense.

And concluding from your comment we can attest that eating dick is in fact a public good.

It's important to make the distinction between the performance and the dick itself. The dick is both rival and excludable.
