If the employer will prove that you had poor performance because of your own will, such as to be classified as misconduct then you will have issues getting your unemployment.
Most likely, you will receive your benefits.
However, what will be impossible, most likely for you, is to find another job in your field or similar positions in other fields. That is because every employer will not touch you with a 10 foot pole knowing you were fired for poor performance.
Also, employers will learn about your performace issues through friends and references. In fat employers use social media to contact past employers in an informal way, and bypass the legal issues that may arise when calling the references you provided them.
You could be leaving the last gig off the resume, but there are ways to know of it through W2 inquiries, and again through social media.

Generally no you won't be denied for that unless your employer can show that you could have done better and were warned enough that you performance reached the level of misconduct.
It is about the hardest "at fault" to prove for an employer. If you are denied you need to appeal.
