Question about Quick Cast Phase

[superbeast]

Me and a friend just had an argument today about the quick cast phase in the action stage(AS).  Does it go like this?  Player with initiative gets a Quick Cast action in the beginning of the AS then the second player gets his.  Afterwards They can use their creatures alternating turns during which they can still perform a Quick Cast. followed by a finally chance for a Quick Cast after there all creatures have gone.  Or does it go like this?  Player with initiative gets his Quick Cast Action at the Start of the AS then he uses his first creatures during which he can still perform a Quick Cast. Then it's the Second Player and his first Quick Cast then he uses his first creatures during which he can still perform a Quick Cast.  Then after the First player has used all creatures he gets one last chance for a Quick Cast.  Then the second Player after he has used all his creatures he gets one last chance for a Quick cast.  The first part is what where having an issue with I say it's the second way and he says it the first way.  Which way is it or do we both have it wrong?  The last part is important to especially if one player has more creatures than the other.  In that case does both players wait for all creatures to be done then get a finally chance for a Quick Cast in turn or does the player with few creatures get a finally chance at a Quick Cast then the player with the most gets his?  Please clarify the way the Quick Cast Phases work.

Quickcast Action can be utilized as follows

1) Begining of the Action Phase - each player may choose to use thier quick cast action at this time, with the individual having initiative going first.

2) After or before the action of a friendly creature - in which case yes it would go back and forth with each exchange of activation.

3) A final quickcast phase- which follows the same rules as the first step.

See pg. 12 rule book!

Hope that helps
