This is why people are getting super cheap virtual machines in Russia now and setting up a Squid proxy server and using it to proxy Twitch.tv though and get no ads.

ttv-lol-pro does this and works pretty well. It is recommended to use this in combination with ublock origin.

Just use TTV LOL Pro. You have to install it manually but it works perfectly, no ads ever. https://github.com/younesaassila/ttv-lol-pro . There are instructions at the bottom

Any way at all to run Ublock origin on any browser for an iPhone?

uBlock Origin Lite now available on Firefox

You are mistaken. Safari removed the APIs necessary for an uBlock port (there used to be one), see https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari/issues/158.
Injecting code via Web Extensions is too late for reliable blocking - by then, either the malicious JS you are trying to defuse has already ran (if it wasn't blocked declaratively), or if it hasn't, then the rest of the page's JS depending on it has already exploded and "fixing" it after the fact (by substituting a neutered shim via Web Extensions) doesn't fix the rest of the page.

Looks like the answer is no, Safari is not supported.

You probably can't. Safari crippled adblockers a while back. Here's a longer explanation from the developers of the best blocking extension.
