I've been using this opening and winning most games with it, what do you think?

It's playable like 2...Qe7 is playable. It does not lead to a forced loss but is inferior to the standard moves like 2...Nc6 or Nf6. But if you like it play it!

I like it because white focuses his/her attention on forking knight and bishop (after nf6) and meanwhile you can start a queenside attack and eventually castle queenside.

If your opponent knows what he's doing he should be able to defeat you. After your move 2. Bd6, nothing has changed (your bishop still has the same diagonal to play on) except that your d-pawn is blocked. 3. d4 exd4 4. Bc4 and according to Stockfish white has a winning advantage.
