Transfer from Skylinear to JR line

Hi

I am thinking of taking the Skylinear train from Narita Airport to Nippori station and transfer to JR line to Ikebukuro.

For such a transfer, do I need to get 2 tickets - one for the Skylinear at the airport and another at Nippori station when I exit?

I will be arriving Tokyo in the morning, does changing to a JR Yamanote line pose a problem for one piece luggage?

Was thinking of taking Narita Express, but Skylinear seems to be a cheaper option as there is savings of about 1,000Yen per trip.

For the return trip to Airport, can I buy the Skylinear ticket in advance at the airport?

As I am on budget trip, any experience is greatly appreciated.
