Dire Mole

Dire Mole is an common neutral minion card, from the Kobolds & Catacombs set.

Strategy
Despite the rather tame appearance, this minion has notably good stats for its mana cost. Three health is hard to deal with on 1 mana. The Beast tag also gives it plenty of synergy with Hunter and Druid, allowing for a Crackling Razormaw or Mark of Y'Shaarj on the following turn.

It's also a strong choice for Build-a-Beast, as it will give your Zombeast a sizeable stat increase for only 1 mana more.

Lore
Dire moles are creatures unique to Hearthstone. Some have been tamed by the kobolds, who use them as mounts to dig deeper into the catacombs.

Gravelsnout Knight depicts a kobold riding a dire mole.

Trivia
The name of this card is likely a play on the World of Warcraft dungeon.
