In general, for non-terminating actions, the last change made by rules within the same [phase](/ruleset-engine/about/phases/) will win (later rules can overwrite changes made by previous ones). However, for [terminating actions](/ruleset-engine/rules-language/actions/), such as Block, Redirect, or any of the challenge actions, rule evaluation will stop and the action is executed immediately.

Load Balancer Custom Rules override the default Load Balancer settings, including pool and origin selection. These are non-terminating actions, so the last rule applied will override any prior rules.
