(3.5) Best combat familiar match-up for a Duskblade?
So, I was working on a Duskblade build (ECL 8 to start), but wasn't sure what kind of familiar would be the most ferocious auxiliary combatant/flanker.
Or is this misguided and a more utility-oriented familiar like an imp or other familiar that can use tools and magic items would be better even with the BAB/HP of a combat focused Duskblade master?

Winter wolf seems to be ranked pretty high, but a properly equiped imp is just nasty.
But are sure burning two feats on that is worth it?

I like blink dogs, also from Complete Warrior's improved familiars list. Blink dogs are good at flanking, but yeah, imps are very powerful familiars too.

I'd go with a winter wolf, especially if one of the PCs can ride it as well.
