:::note


Generally speaking, for non-terminating actions, the last change made by rules in the same [phase](/ruleset-engine/about/phases/) will win (later rules can overwrite changes done by previous rules). However, for [terminating actions](/ruleset-engine/rules-language/actions/) (Block, Redirect, or one of the challenge actions), rule evaluation will stop and the action will be executed immediately.

Load Calancer Custom Rules overrides the default Load Balancer setting including pool/origin selection. These are non-terminating actions so the last rule will override the previous rules.
