I played league for 8 years, got to the top 1% of players, and was only able to properly quit when I got permabanned.
I would say the reason it's so hard to quit is because it's psychologically designed to keep giving you small bursts of happiness.
Every time you kill a minion the little sound plays and the gold animation appears. Your brain gets a little stimulus reward.
Fighting enemy champions is also incredibly adrenaline inducing.
If I was studying psych I could probably legit write a thesis on this specifically.
