Or Allistar and Olaf for better counters...or simply grab a QSS, but most people don't even remember that...IBG is better on Skar due to the slow field, armor, CDR and that it helps greatly with his early to mid game mana problems. Yes a TF has a few better stats and a better Sheen active, but the stats of IBG (despite it's current lackluster state) are tailor-made for Skarner's needs and gives him a massive power spike.
