Mace is opportunistic and sides with whoever's winning. Willas and Garlan are cool. And Olenna is the elusive shadow, far more cunning and dangerous than anyone could imagine.
Also, what is your opinion on Aegon the Conqueror and his sisters?

I think that the Tyrells (Via Houses Tarly and Redwyne) are going to support Aegon IV. Same goes for the Faith Militant.
Aegon was a genius. On the same subject, Torhenn Stark was the only King in Westeros with any brains at the time of the conquest. As for his sisters, Rhaenys > Visenya.

What is your opinion on Maegor the Cruel, and who do think is the worse king, Aegon IV or Aerys II?

What is your opinion on Maegor the Cruel, and who do think is the worse king, Aegon IV or Aerys II? Maegor is hands down the worst Targaryen King. Quite possibly the worst King Westeros ever had, although there are a few First Men and Ironborn kings who could go for the title as well. Aegon IV was worse. Aerys' paranoia had some basis in fact and when six of your children die either miscarry, die a birth or shortly afterward, it can affect your mental health, particularly if your family has a genetic history of madness. Also Aerys felt (incorrectly) that Tywin (one of his best friends) had betrayed him at Duskendale and Aerys' other best friend, Steffon Baratheon died at sea on a mission Aerys had sent him on. But don't get me wrong, Aerys was terrible king and a terrible person. His treatment of Joanna Lannister, whether at her wedding or at the Anniversary Tourney in King's Landing, was abominable, and his treatment of his own wife was even worse. He treated Tywin very poorly as well. His actions at Duskendale are even worse than what Tywin did at to Castamere. Aegon IV simply has no excuses for his behavior. His flaws are so many, I won't even bother to try and list them all. Aegon lacked any form of self-control whatsoever.

Best Westerosi King? In my opinion it's Garth VII Gardener "The Goldenhand".

Ageon IV is worse, but it's close.
