Deserter's Quarters is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.

Official card text
You may choose not to untap this artifact during your untap step.,
: Tap target creature. It doesn't untap during its controller's untap step for as long as this artifact remains tapped.
How it works : Deserter's Quarters
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
The activated ability can target any creature, not just one that's untapped.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
As long as Deserter's Quarters remains tapped, the effect stopping the creature from untapping during its controller's untap step remains even if that creature untaps some other way (for example, with Colossal Heroics).
No other card is named in this ruling.
