selector-max-pseudo-class
Limit the number of pseudo-classes in a selector.
.foo .bar:first-child:hover {}
/* ↑ ↑
↑ ↑
1 2 -- this selector contains two pseudo-classes */
This rule resolves nested selectors before counting the number of pseudo-classes in a selector. Each selector in a selector list is evaluated separately.

selector, and the result does not count toward the total for the entire
selector.
Options
