That's making the assumption that he knows Martian Manhunter's weakness, which I think is probably unreasonable.
I brought it up because in a fight, I think there is a chance that fire is going to randomly come into play. But I never go into these things assuming the other has full knowledge of their opponent's strengths and weaknesses.
If you do assume that, I think Quasar probably stomps.

i thought each combatant has general knowledge of their opponents at the beginning of a forum fight no? (forum rules)??

Ok can someone clue me in, there's been so many changes/retcons in DC I'm behind the times.
How fast can MM fly? What's his reaction time?
Is the "fire weakness" a phobia or is it something so overpowering that it can hurt him and affect him even when phased?
Is he still just below Superman strength/durability wise?
Because if he's almost as fast/strong/invulnerable as Superman, what's to stop him from phasing then blitzing right at Quasar then stomping his ass?
Plus can MM fire off psi-bolts? He could be doing that while blitzing Quasar. Quasar wouldn't do anything except die painfully.
MM can read Quasar's thoughts and see what he's gonna do as before he does it. Quasar is only immune to mental take over, nothing else.
I believe Q's bands protect him from any psi penetration so MM wouldn't be able to read this thoughts.
If Quasar did know MM's weakness to fire he would just tap into a fire source (like the sun).
Also, if Q knew MM could phase I would assume he would move fast enough to not let him get near or something. Quasar is a real thinker so he would come up with something. Heck, Quasar could even make himself invisible - though he never has done it in the comic.

Basic Knowledge
Each side receives basic knowledge of the other. A good measure of this would be what the general population of the character's homeworld knows. For example, that Superman has a weakness to Kryptonite is general knowledge, but that he's Clark Kent is not

No they don't, unless there's been a retcon. They only protect him from mental takeover. You can still read his mind, psi blast him, fool him with mental illusions,etc...
Re: Martian Manhunter vs Quasar
Yo.

3) both same time
1) MM but he has to work for it, and if his mental protection *isnt* up (and it wasnt always) then its an easy win
2) much easier fight if he stays phased, but a h2h battle works to her advantage (tp would make it a wrap tho)
3) he'd NEED to use tp here, or else Id give them the win
