Thorn of Amethyst + Chalice of the Void + Spell Snare

[Poron]

Hi All,

Thorn of Amethyst in play.

Chalice if the Void is cast with mandatory 3 mana for a 1 counter.

Can Spell Snare counter the Chalice or not?

Yes, in the same way that it can counter any other spell who's CMC is 2 and cast under Thorn.

The extra :1: from Thorn does not alter it's CMC.
