I don't think so, since they are just one 3/DX roll away from being free. That does not meet the standard of "tied up", to me.

On the other hand, if they're not able to make that 3/DX roll for some number of turns (e.g. because their adjDX is bad for whatever reason), and you are able to stand next to them, perhaps that is enough.
<sarcasm>
On the other hand, lasso/whip attacks are generally ridiculously overpowered due to the overly simple way they're written and/or weren't playtested enough to show how powerful they are. Maybe if the consensus is this DOES work, the day when they get some limits to their powers will come sooner.
