Not true. You also get points for playing a game. With enough points you can buy any heroes. With enough play times, you'll have more than enough to buy all the heroes without paying real money and then there's nothing else you can use it for. Real money is only required if you want to buy skins. Also, with hundreds of available champion to play you are not really required to play the most recently released champion. Just play from pools of all existing champions until you get enough point to buy new champion.
