Elder Sign
When does a lock take effect, and is its die removed from the pool at once?
The rulebook says the die is placed immediately and freed only when the locking card resolves.

At once. When a card or monster with a locked-die icon comes into play, the matching die goes onto that icon right away, even if it was on a spell or a marker. It stays locked until the card or effect that locks it is resolved.
