Idk if this will help, but try to deploy your knights early to protect the pawn that, if taken with the white knight will result in a queen/rook fork.
No, it is
Good
Chessbase shows it has a higher win rate too.

Chessbase must be smoking something strong. Or you've misread something. That h6 is an awful move, white is much better.

...h6 is perfectly playble. And besides the OP has a 400 blitz rating. Openings are not going to decide his games. Blunders are.

Yes, h6 is "playable" in a sense that the Bongcloud is playable.
What you said about openings and blunders is true. But that's not a good excuse for recommending a horrible move. Just to stop a move that's not even a threat.

...h6 has worked at the USCF A level in OTB tournaments, so I will trust experience. But to each is own.

DONT PLAY E4! PLAY D4 OR C4! PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
Bobby Fisher might have a strong argument against this strategy.

It’s the Italian game knight attack.
Does anyone know how to stop it?
Thanks!
