Sacrificial Openings

I need help finding an opening for tournament play. I like tactical, sacrificial, and aggressive openings. If anyone has any suggestions, please say them because it would really help me.

I not even sure you know understand what any of those terms mean?  I looked at some of your games, and you dont play any openings "tactically , sacrificially, or aggressively"

What i did notice is that you trade at every opportunity.  

If youre preparing for a tournament, you best bet is to stick to Opening Principles.  Why do i suggest this?  A few reasons:

You dont follow opening principles.

You miss simpe tactics.

You hang pieces.

Well you could always try Orangutan (Polish opening)
Or the scotch Gambit.
That’s for the Aggressive and strange ones.
In my opinion tactical and sacrificial doesn’t add up
