Wait for more players before matching

Let's say i have a queue configured like below, with this config when a match with 2 player is found it immediately closes the ticket and this causes almost all of the matches to be 1vs1. If it could wait for sometime before closing the tickets it can create a match with more players in it.

Is there any way to say to the match maker to wait for a couple of seconds more even if it found a match with the minimum requirement?

You need to use MatchTotalRule to define match size expansion and decreasing the minimum match size over time. Please refer to the official document on this section -- Expansion of number of players over time

Do I need to provide PlayerCount field as in the MatchmakingPlayerAttributes while creating ticket?

Yes, you should. Min & Max Match Size of a matchmaking queue defines a hard boundary that won't change during the match. Meanwhile the Min & Max attribute values in MatchTotalRule settings are flexible and do the expansion job during the matching process. the Min & Max attribute value doesn't have to match exactly but please note to have the number within the hard boundary that match size defines.
