There are many good gambits for black that were tested on the top level - Benko, Budapest, Blumenfeld Countergambit, and if you're not looking to be the gambitting side but rather a pawntaker, then Semi-Slav seems to be the best choice or playing the Catalan. @sparowe14 And I would say that achieving Benko gambit should be rather easy, 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 c5 3.d5 b5 - there's no philosophy, of course white doesn't have to push to d5, but that's likely the best move
Benko gambit I haven't played much yet, but opponents with white often block the whole diagonal, which is making it difficult to play and positions might get dull. This opening is either confusing for your opponent and you win quickly or you collapse playing with 1 pawn down. And for Englund gambit, if you are tactically superior to your opponent you can score a quick point with it. Deadly in blitz and bullet. Just play for chaos and crazy attacks. Don't play it against your level opponents, you only will get a worse position and most likely losing in the endgame.
against d4? I would say Blumenfeld Gambit!
