Leto, I do play gambits most of the time. I prefer them, I think. Silviosponza, I do think I lean more towards tactical playing but I do like strategic playing. Also I s kings gambit a good opening?

Then you can try King's fianchetto or Modern defense ( King's fianchetto with black pieces ) . King's fianchetto with black pieces that have tempo in relation to King's indian defence or Pirc-Ufimtsev defence because first play f5 and then Nf6 . Can see how the best chess engine play Modern defense at link Engine tournament from opening King's fianchetto with black pieces

Ruy Lopez is a strategical opening . You can see match Viktor Korchnoi vs Anatoly Karpov that most game played with opening Ruy Lopez
