(There's M2 tech, matchup, and frame data threads, but no stage ones? I suppose there's a first for everything.)
To start this off... While I've seen that M2 performs well on large stages, I've found that Battlefield allows for amazing mobility. Teleporting around the stage seems to be a pretty great option, and if you get an aerial combo started, you can do sometimes surprise your opponent and get a kill off the top by doing a grounded teleport to the top ledge and inputting up smash, uair, or fair. The low ceiling allows for some pretty easy kills with up throw (starting at the high 90's for floaty characters) and since the horizontal blastzones are pretty close, forward/back throw both seem to be nice kill options at higher percents, and can lead into some easy edgeguards at low-mid percents. Down throw from the main platform can lead into techchases on the ledges.
FD seems great against spacies when it comes to edgeguarding and combos, but Falcos tend to pressure me with SHFFL lasers a lot.
I've only had PM for a little over a month, forgive my noobishness (does that count as a john of some sort? I hope not). The BF data on this thread is probably common knowledge, but to hell with it. Any other opinions on whatever stages are advantageous for M2?
