# Example: Use a compound rule to create a match with players with similar attributes or similar selections
<a name="match-examples-10"></a>

This example illustrates how to set up a rule set for matches with two teams using `compound`. In the example: 
+ The `SimilarLeagueDistance` rule ensures all players in a match have a `league` within 2 of other players. 
+ The `SimilarSkillDistance` rule ensures all players in a match have a `skill` within 10 of other players. If a player has been waiting 10 seconds, the distance is expanded to 20. If a player has been waiting 20 seconds, the distance is expanded to 40. 
+ The `SameMapComparison` rule ensures all players in a match have requested the same `map`. 
+ The `SameModeComparison` rule ensures all players in a match have requested the same `mode`. 
+ The `CompoundRuleMatchmaker` rule ensures a match if at least one of the following conditions is true: 
  + Players in a match have requested the same `map` and the same `mode`.
  + Players in a match have comparable `skill` and `league` attributes.
