Alternative variation instead of deficit Sumo deadlifts?

Wondering if there is an alternative variation I can do instead of deficit sumo deadlifts for PLII. I did them for 12 week strength and did not find it to help my deadlifts.

We can’t predict what specific variations you’ll respond better or worse to.

Pick any other deadlift variation you’d like and see how you do. Could be any conventional variant (beltless, paused, deficit, bands/chains, eccentric tempo), or sumo variant.
