Not sure what you mean by "real working blocking", but I believe it isn't their goal to block legit, unobtrusive ads.
-
Brave's blocking is as real as it gets, though we do limit it largely to 3rd party resources. We may introduce first-party, and aesthetic blockers in the future.
-
Compared to uBlock Origin it does almost nothing for nuisances or tracking & malvertising threats.
-
How are you determining that? Brave blocks at the network level, all third-party resources (sans images). We also modify requests and responses to protect user privacy and identity. What are we missing?
-
Hmm, according to https://panopticlick.eff.org it's just "acceptable ads". Also failing to stop fingerprinting.
-
The annoying ads I notice are probably mostly same-site, like Twitter.
