Nah, I never play 1. e4, I was just testing it. Italian isn't part of my main repertoire, but I know some nuances such as when to go a4 and h3 etc. My manoeuvres were kinda awkward and fxe3 was a weird decision but maybe not that bad. Engine said I was +1 until I kinda gave the game away, I think I just, in general, underestimate king safety and assume I can calculate my way out of trouble, and here, I missed something basically like 2 moves deep...\
4. Ng5 is critical (I think), but has alot of theory so I rather just practice my positional techniques.
