What is just imagine, if and of your game blitz,daily,bullet four player etc.

Reached ZERO rating then what will happen?

In true elo rating systems, 100 is the mathematical lowest rating one can get, a loss when at 100 doesn't drop the rating further; so zero elo rating for all (or any) of these categories would be impossible. However, some algorithms allow rating to drop to zero (chess.com uses glicko rating I believe, but it is very similar to elo with only subtle changes).

Rating floors aside, what would happen if a rating reaches zero? I guess the same as it reaching any other rating ... nothing really; they are just values. Losing would do nothing to a rating already zero, but other than that - I don't think there would be anything "special" about a rating of zero.

p.s. Although the expression, "we can only go up" being intrinsically true with a zero rating sounds like a "special" assessment of the situation. xD
