Battlefield.
Explosions can hit ANYWHERE on the map. Just plant anything on the platforms and people will get hurt no matter what. Usmash will add onto to c4 and what not.
Even if you miss with the explosives. There isn't much space for people to attack. Tilts will destroy your opponent. Utilt will hit through the platforms. Ftilt can be used frequently to stop opponents.
Aerials can be used more often because of the protection from the platforms. fair can be used freely.
I just think that his attacks are suited for this stage. It's like there isn't a punishment for using any of his attacks. You can just relax with your attacks. You don't need to move around a lot.

My personal favorite is Smashville because that moving platform makes for mindgameslol.

My favorite is FD, 'cause it's flat and Snake can control the stage easily.

Platform stages are really good for Snake, forcing the opponent to think about where they want to move, and where they aren't allowed to move, effectively caging your opponent in. **** proceeds from there.
Flat stages are OK, too, because of Snake's camping abilities.

lylat cruise is great; i personally dont like it too much, because of the swaying, but its great for hiding mines and stuff like that. the platforms are low enough that utilt hits through it and that the blasts from C4 / mines reach on both sides of the platform.
I personally prefer smashville, that moving platform = win
battlefield and FD are great too, along with yoshi's island (the new one) or yoshis story or whatever its called..

IMO his best stages for him are BF,SV,FD,YI, and shadow moses.
Shadow moses to me is my new favorite map because i can stick C4 anywhere on the side pillars which leads me to combo my enemy into the air followed up with the detonation for really good damage.
The other plus about this map that i love is sheild dropping grenades and throwing them against the nearest wall keeping your enemy on his/her toes when you do this tactic.

i like to save his uptilt for the kills, so I like maps with short ceilings. I haven't extensively tested them at all, but which ones have the lowest ceilings? it seems like MK's ship has a low one. I also love Delfino Plaza because you can get people to forget where your mines are when the level changes and what not. easy c4 recovering too cause you can go through the floor.

Snake does relatively well on all the neutrals.

So IYO what is snakes best stage?
Battlefield- The platforms are good for aerials/mine planting etc. Most reasons have been said already.
Lylat Cruise- C4s impossible to see if its on the platforms because of the way the camera is angled, and the platforms are good just like BF for aerials/mine planting. The only real downside is that some people don't really like the swaying of the stage, although its not all that bad IMO, because it's alot like battlefield, and because it helps with cool grenade strategies.
Smashville- not to bad of a counterpick because the moving platform is good for claymore/C4, but I would pick one of the first 2 before this one.
IMO battlefield is probably best, but both battlefield and lylat cruise are pretty evenly good counterpicks, so just find out what one you work best with.

I think corneria because of its low ceiling and the utilt gets KOs much more faster than other stages. and the right side of the stage can be volleyed with gernades and C4. I learned snake just for counter picking 2nd or 3rd round with snake on corneria for tournaments.
