Cards/Gatecrash/Hands of Binding
Hands of Binding
Sorcery
Oracle Text
Tap target creature an opponent controls. That creature doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step.
(Then you may exile this spell card encoded on a creature you control. Whenever that creature deals combat damage to a player, its controller may cast a copy of the encoded card without paying its mana cost.)

If a different player gains control of the creature that was tapped by Hands of Binding, Hands of Binding will stop that creature from untapping during its new controller's next untap step.
If the creature that was tapped by Hands of Binding is untapped during its controller's next untap step (perhaps because a spell untapped it), Hands of Binding has no effect at that time. It won't apply at some later time when the creature is tapped.
The exiled card with cipher grants a triggered ability to the creature it's encoded on. If that creature loses that ability and subsequently deals combat damage to a player, the triggered ability won't trigger. However, the exiled card will continue to be encoded on that creature.
