When to do deadlifts?

[cccp]

I have never done deadlifts before, and really want to start doing them. But I am not sure how to incorporate them into my worrkout regime: should I do it on my leg day, or on my back day?
Also, which deadlift is the best for building overall mass?

I have always done them on back day but that may not be true with everyone.

I do them on back day, and I think most of the peeps on here do the same....

Back or possibly leg day

back day

Definately on back day, could not even stomach the thought of doing deads on same day as squats.

definetly back day as DL's are far from a quad dominant exercise.

yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking, with deadlift being such a hard exercise and everything, no way I would be able to do it on the same day with squats.

deadlifting the same day as squatting sucks (except in competitions, than its all fun).

no..but stiff legged are a hamstring killer - thus on leg day for me.
