Can you recommend how much to deload, pls?

So I am currently doing SS/SL 5x5 and have failed to hit my squat reps the last three sessions.

I'm lazy and can't be bothered to read back through the bumf so could anyone tell me the recommended deload - 10%, 20%?

Also, I'm trying to get as much strength build as possible at deficit. This is my first stall on squats - should I just deload or would it be better to deload and UP calories?

Thanks

ETA: should I throw some creatine into the mix?
