Youtube is cause of constant discussion here on the forum, for two reasons:

1. As Pi-hole is a filtering DNS forwarder, it cannot block any ads that are delivered via the exact same domain as the content, unless you are willing to forfeit accessing the content as well.
2. Any counter measure published here is likely to be picked up and conteracted by Youtube sooner or later.

Feel free to search our forum here for Youtube, you may yet find ways of defeating parts of it. 🙂
