Here's my top 10

1.Baldur's Gate 3: By far my favorite, just love everything about it
2.Divinity Original Sin 2: Uses an alternative system, although its a little bit worse, its still top tier and very much kino
3.Heroes of Might and Magic 4
I know 3 is the best one, but 4 is my favorite combat wise, i like the spells more and the fact that heroes can fight adds to the battle.
4.Slay the Spire
Although its not very deep, i enjoyed it a lot and it pays off to get a good synergy
5.XCOM2
Great tactics
6.Worms Mayhem
One of my favorites, I used to play this game a lot, its the best worms to me, even better than Armageddon
7.The Temple of Elemental Evil
My favorite iteration of 3.5 edition, shame its buggy and only has combat, would pay 100$ for a remake by Larian
8.Tactics Ogre
It has solid depth and good challenge
9.Jagged Alliance 2
Hilarious game and fun flexibility
10.Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn
Probably my favorite FE system

Pokemon is the only turn-based RPG with halfway decent strategic elements, though only when playing against another player. Of course, the series is hampered by the fact that the devs didn't actually design the game for competitive play, meaning it's heavily unbalanced, resulting in smelly turbo-autists making up their own rules in an attempt to force it to be VGC viable. Still, the only strategic element that most other turn-based games have is trial and error.
