Thanks, Charistoph, forgot about the Jump Monstrous Creature part letting it have Deep Strike.

Here's from the new Eldar FAQ, to add a precedent.

Q: Do Swooping Hawks that start the game on the table and Skyleap on the first/subsequent turns re-enter the game via Deep Strike?

A: Yes – they are placed into Ongoing Reserves and will arrive by Deep Strike in your following turn.

I was going to mention the Jump units having deep strike but wasn't sure whether just because FMC move like jump units they definitely gain all the associated special rules. It's not really critical though as some FMC innately have deep strike rule.

Here's from the new Leviathan FAQ, for more (confusing) precedent.

Q: In regard to Tyranid Formations like Endless Swarms, Skyblight Swarms and Sporefields, can units that are placed in Ongoing Reserve through the respawn mechanics choose to arrive via Deep Strike if they have the Deep Strike rule and, by extension, Flyers/Flying Monstrous Creatures that leave combat airspace?
A: No. They arrive from Reserve as described in Moving On From Reserve.
