    I tried a lot of different adblockers but none of them is smooth. When ad comes in, the stream starts to lag and freeze most of the time. Sometimes I have to wait for a long time. Yes, I don't see ads but I struggle so much with the stream itself too. What is my best option? Doesn't matter if it's an extention, a browser or a software itself, I want a smooth experience with Twitch, without ads :)

    Unfortunately, Adguard doesn't work at all. It doesn't even block Twitch ads for me. There are some adblockers specialized on Twitch but they cause problems in stream, Adguard on the other hand can not stop ads to begin with.

    It blocks trackers and Ads from tracking you so it is an Ad blocker. I didn't see any Ads though while logged into Twitch even with Privacy Badger disabled.

    Can you take a screenshot of some ads on Twitch for more details.

    Thanks everyone for helping. The first thing I saw was an ad when I opened a stream with privacy badger. They say that it's not an adblocker but when I created another user in my browser, with only one extension (privacy badger ofc) I didn't see a single ad for days and no lag, everything works so smooth. Looks like I found what I needed :)

    I didn't check the other recommendations, I can't provide feedback for the future visitors of this thread yet.

    I saw an ad, again. Unfortunately privacy badger doesn't work all the time.

    I'm currently using TTV LOL PRO on Chrome as well as performing the directions from the "Applying a Script (uBlock Origin)" section of the TwitchAdSolutions GitHub. This combination is working well for me so far even though it may sometimes take a little while for the stream to start up.
