Use noscript it's the best. You will have to learn what's useful while being real and what's fake but that's the best part. It disables YouTube's scripts for advertising.
Or just use uBlock Origin? It blocks YouTube's ads (and their adblocker-blockers) right out of the gate. It's also available on Firefox for Android.
For the moment, Youtube is managing to push ads onto me despite uBO.
Have you followed the instructions in the devs' Reddit thread? (At the bottom of the thread, they also have a section of instructions for people who've already gone through the process of purging their filters before.)
Also, make sure nothing else (ex. another adblocker, including your browser's built-in adblocker) is causing issues.
