His guess block depends on what his opponents are about to do in a play. Of course he can handle blocking spike after spike with no issues, but most of his "power" comes from being able to guess block correctly. As shown by his stats, Tendou depends on more brains than brawn. This doesn't mean his guess blocking isn't just limited to the defensive side of playing since he's able to catch his opponents off guard by acting as a decoy. Most of Tendou's volleyball capabilities come from his exceptional guess blocking.
When provoked enough, Tendou can be a force to be reckoned with due to his intimidating presence from being so enthralled in the game. Then saying that Tendou's guess plays won't work on him (and only on simpletons like Hinata), Tendou becomes extremely agitated with this calling Tsukishima "a pain in the ass" and the worse first year. He is overly confident in his abilities with his guess blocking since he's never been wrong, but this is proven to be a bad omen when Tsukishima blocks Tendou's "surprise" block. This doesn't mean he won't stop his now harsher teasing as he calls Tsukishima "The Average Guy with the Average Block". His personality has a drastic shift as he becomes more fixated on the game itself. As for his nickname of the "Guess Monster", that's what Tendou literally morphs into while on the court. This is shown when he openly announced that Hinata was shorter than he originally thought. Tendou sometimes doesn't know when to filter his teasing and often shouts his sardonic teasing out. He's quite loud and expressive with his opinions off the court, but most of them are just his usual teasing at others. This is shown when Shiratorizawa walks onto the court of the finals game and he's the only teammate without a serious expression. When all of his teammates are focused pre-game, he is treating the situation like a child's game. Tendou is more of the outgoing, extroverted type.
